port

Most of my system has packages installed through ports-mgmt/pkg, with one package editors/emacs-devel manually compiled through the ports system because I need to use my own compilation options with it. With this, I run into problems with pkg and the port conflicting, when the port has an...

Hi Friends! Can anyone having time to generate ports to these python plugins? They needed for using with www/radicale: - security/radicale-dovecot-auth - security/radicale-imap-auth Thanks!

Hi, I'm new to porting a program and want to contribute to adding some useful existing programs. So I choose to start with ssh-import-id which I used often in production and I already read the quick and slow port handbook. It's been two months now since I submitted a port. Here is my port...

The Inkscape port seems to have a bug... I install it from pkg install inkscape when updating to latest inkscape = execute on computer ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libncursesw.so.8" not found, required by "libreadline.so.8" Current OS= 13.1 Release-p2 Let's assume I wanted to used this...

While developing the devel/qschematic port I had to perform some debugging on the upstream build system. At first, I created a separate branch in the upstream repository and used that branch in the port Makefile. However, I quickly determined that this is not a sustainable workflow so I started...

Hi, Noob question maybe but I am kind of desperate here. I can't figure out how to apply a custom patch on a port. I only have basic knowledge about ports. My company is asking me to make security/teleport version 8.x.x or more work on FreeBSD. The current version present in ports/pkg (4.3.9)...

Hello! I've seen that the port has been tried by a FreeBSD community member: https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/28749 Is there anyone who knows if there exits a port of PyTorch or could make it work otherwise on FreeBSD? Many thanks!

I need to temporarily install PHP 5.5.9 in order to test an application upgrade. The installed version of the app is incompatible with PHP>5, and the current version is incompatible with PHP<7, so I need to upgrade to an intermediate version, upgrade PHP, and then do a final upgrade of the app...

I'm using a fairly strict PF ruleset on a server and I am having trouble with updating the system. I have port 80 and 443 open (http and https respectively) but I get a "No address record" error when I try to update the repositories. I also have port 21 open in case it used ftp, but it...

I'm considering creating a couple of ports. The upstream software of the ports I'd like to create compile out-of-the-box on FreeBSD which should make this fairly simple. I've read the Porter's Handbook but still have some questions I'd like to clarify before tackling this. 1. Port location...

I have written support for DoP (DirectStreamDigital over PCM) in mpd when using OSS as output. Its really hacky but works. Now I want to integrate this (locally) into the port for mpd. - I have created a patch file which will be appended, its structure was modified to match another patch...

I'm installing freebsd-ports but during installation I'm getting prompts to select options. actually I'm not selecting any options instead just clicking OK button which I want in automated fashion since I'm running through shell scripts. I have tried make ports BATCH=yes but still I'm getting...

Does anyone of you guys have experience with JavaFX on FreeBSD? Does it work or need any particular packages on top of, i.e. java/openjdk11? I attempted to update and adopt the port for desktop/ganttproject and noticed that the latest version got rewritten to use JavaFX. I updated everything in...

I was just wondering why there is no print/pdfarranger port for FreeBSD (since even OpenBSD has one): What I found on their GitHub issue tracker: Installation instructions for FreeBSD #381 BTW Since that one is a GTK3 GUI application, does anyone know of an equivalent that's using QT5 instead?

I'm almost done porting NsCDE (https://github.com/NsCDE/NsCDE). I'm unsure what category to put it under, however? It's a "modern" re-implementation of CDE, which is under x11. However, NsCDE really just is a bunch of scripts based on fvwm2. I originally thought about placing it under x11-wm...

Is it possible to port bspwm-rounded-corners and picom with blur effects ? https://github.com/j-james/bspwm-rounded-corners https://github.com/yshui/picom Tried to compile bspwm-rounded-corners misses some dev libraries which I don't know if they are available on FreeBSD. Tried to search for...

To simplify references to sections within pages for ports, we now have anchors within each page. https://www.freshports.org/faq.php#anchors lists the available anchors suggests two browser extensions that can help you to work with anchors. With the page for Firefox as an example...

Hello. New user here. I recently switched to the latest branch of 12.2-RELEASE-p4 and updated all my installed pkgs. Then, I installed the port system because I wanted a version of berry (x11-wm/berry) with my own patches applied. All of it worked exactly as planned and installed fine. However...

I have just seen that neither the signalapp / Signal-Desktop nor the deltachat-desktop app has been ported to FreeBSD yet. Has anyone already taken a look if it's possible or to run the (Debian-based) Linux binary? Or to run the Windows app with Wine? P.S. I'm not using FreeBSD (waiting for...

I was just wondering if someone would be interested in porting signalapp / Signal-Desktop or if there is specific reason why it hasn't been ported yet (Linux only?). P.S. I'm not using FreeBSD (waiting for 13.0 RELEASE to go onto my new laptop) or Signal yet, nor am I a developer, so this is...
