Updating Information for FreeBSD ports developers
This file is maintained by [email protected] and copyrighted by the
FreeBSD Foundation.
This file contains major changes to ports and the ports infrastructure.
Intended audience are ports committers, maintainers and other
developers. User oriented changes should be submitted for inclusion
in the release notes and/or placed into UPDATING.
All ports committers are allowed to commit to this file.
20150331:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
Subversion modules are no longer activated in httpd.conf!
To activate the subversion apache modules a dedicated file
will be installed as modules.d/220_subversion.conf
20150328:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
New "metaport" USES to take care of predefining correctly the needed
macros as expected by meta ports.
20150323:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
Remove "@fc" and "@fontsdir". All fonts should always use @fcfontsdir which
Properly takes care of the fonts.dir and fonts.scale cache files as well
as ensure to properly update the fontconfig cache
New "fonts" USES. It defines the default variables needed for fonts and also
takes care of the run time dependencies
20150326:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
PTHREAD_CLFAGS and PTHREAD_LIBS have been removed. Please see entry
20130207 for more information.
20150319:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
MASTER_SITE GHR (GITHUB_RELEASE) has been removed. The same functionality
can be achieved with just USE_GITHUB/GH_ACCOUNT/GH_PROJECT. GH_TAGNAME
defaults to DISTVERSION. If the tag needs to be adjusted then change
GH_TAGNAME. No GH_COMMIT is needed.
20150319:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
USE_GITHUB has been updated to make GH_COMMIT optional. Using this new
scheme allows only setting the _tag_ or _commit hash_ in GH_TAGNAME and
not having to know the hash for a tag. This scheme will download a tarball
that has a different checksum than before due to a changed directory name
for extraction.
GH_TAGNAME can now be any length of the hash as long as it is unique. There
is no longer a 7-character requirement.
The following MASTER_SITES are provided to retain the old checksum and
directory structure (that require GH_COMMIT):
GH -> GHL
GITHUB -> GITHUB_LEGACY
20150305:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
Dependencies on the Xfce ports have been migrated to USES. Instead
of USE_XFCE= configenv, you should use USES= xfce.
20150224:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
New USE_QT4 component has been introduced to reduce buildtime
dependencies for Qt 4 ports that use localization support. Instead
of USE_QT4=linguist you should now use USE_QT4=linguisttools_build.
Conversion of existing ports may require USE_QT4 adjustment for
missing components.
20141217:
AFFECTS: users of lang/perl5.*
AUTHOR: [email protected]
Perl now links libperl.so with all .so it builds. The stage-qa checks have
been extended to check that libperl.so is in fact linked with .so in
SITE_ARCH and errors out if none of the .so build by a port are linked with
it. It also checks that the rpath and runpath elf attributes are present.
20141130:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
The devel/gettext port has been split up in devel/gettext-runtime which
contains runtime libraries such as libintl, and devel/gettext-tools which
contains build tools such as msgfmt. You can use USES=gettext-runtime to
set a LIB/BUILD/RUN_DEPENDS on devel/gettext-runtime and USES=gettext-tools
to set a BUILD/RUN_DEPENDS on devel/gettext-tools.
USES=gettext is now the same as "USES=gettext-runtime gettext-tools",
meaning a LIB_DEPENDS on devel/gettext-runtime and a BUILD_DEPENDS on
devel/gettext-tools.
20141126:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
The way Perl modules are installed has changed. Before, we had
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18
site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3
Now we have :
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl
site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3
Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the
Perl version, minimizing the upgrade when the major Perl version is changed.
It uses a version dependent directory for modules with compiled bits.
As PERL_ARCH is no longer needed in plists, it has been removed from
PLIST_SUB.
The USE_PERL5=fixpacklist keyword is removed, the .packlist file is now
always removed, as is perllocal.pod.
The old site_perl and site_perl/arch directories have been kept in the
default Perl @INC for all Perl ports, and will be phased out as these old
Perl versions expire.
20141122:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
Dependencies on the PostgreSQL ports have been migrated
to USES. Instead of USE_PGSQL, please use USES=pgsql instead.
USE_PGSQL=yes becomes USES=pgsql
WANT_PGSQL_VER=91+ becomes USES=pgsql:9.1+
USE_PGSQL=server becomes USES=pgsql and WANT_PGSQL=server
20141118:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
To ease future work, a new SITE_ARCH variable and PLIST_SUB replacement
containing SITE_PERL/PERL_ARCH has been added.
20141102:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
SSP is now default. This can be disabled with WITHOUT_SSP.
SSP_CFLAGS defaults to -fstack-protector.
SSP will be used on all amd64 releases. It will only be used on i386
releases over 10.0.
20141007:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
The @cwd [path] construct in plist files is deprecated. Instead of adding
those lines to the plist:
@cwd /
etc/rc.d/foo
var/db/bar
@cwd /some
@exec mkdir -p %D/nested/dir
add this:
/etc/rc.d/foo
/var/db/bar
@exec mkdir -p /some/nested/dir
20141002:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
New BUNDLE_LIBS knobs to allow a port to tell pkg(8) not to compute provided
libraries, this is to be used when a port bundles libraries it doesn't want
to expose to other ports.
20141001:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
Support for autoconf213, autoheader213, aclocal14 and automake14 has been
removed from USE_AUTOTOOLS.
20140930:
AUTHOR: [email protected]
Building ports in a chroot or jail have always required a particular
environment be setup. This was not clear though and the ports framework
did not enforce it. These requirements are:
1. Either a SRC_BASE/sys/sys/param.h, or /usr/include/sys/param.h be
present with the __FreeBSD_version_ number of the target system,
or OSVERSION be set in the environment. Lack of these would fallback
on kern.osreldate before, which is no longer the case.
2. UNAME_r,UNAME_v,UNAME_s all must be set for the target system.
Not having these values in sync will now cause the build to error until it is
resolved.
Setting these in the environment can be done via your own wrapper scripts,
or /etc/login.conf (along with cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf) or
via /etc/make.conf using appropriate values. Note that OSVERSION is redundant
if a proper param.h is in the environment:
OSVERSION+= 1100036
UNAME_ENV+= OSVERSION=${OSVERSION}
UNAME_ENV+= UNAME_s=FreeBSD
UNAME_ENV+= UNAME_r=11.0-CURRENT
UNAME_ENV+= UNAME_v="${UNAME_s} ${UNAME_r}"

pkg(8) now handles the directories under PREFIX automatically,
and will automatically remove them as needed.
A new @dir keyword has been introduced to handle directories specially:
- directories with special owner, group, or permissions (access mode)
- empty directories
- directories out of PREFIX
As a consequence @dirrm and @dirrmtry are now considered deprecated.
Credentials can now be passed in arguments to keywords
(the empty keyword means "regular file"):
@(user,group,mode) file1
@dir(user,group,mode) directory_with_special_owner_or_mode
PLIST_DIRSTRY is now considered deprecated, use PLIST_DIRS instead.

New PYTHON_CONCURRENT_INSTALL knob to support the parallel installation
of ports for different python versions.
If set to yes, the knob indicates that the port can be installed for
different python versions at the same time. The port will use a unique
prefix for certain directories using USES=uniquefiles:dirs (see the
uniquefiles.mk Uses for details about the directories). Binaries
receive an additional suffix, based on ${PYTHON_VER}.
The values for the uniquefiles USES are set as follows:
UNIQUE_PREFIX= ${PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX}
UNIQUE_SUFFIX= -${PYTHON_VER}
If the port is installed for the current default python version, scripts and
binaries in
${PREFIX}/bin
${PREFIX}/sbin
${PREFIX}/libexec
are linked from the prefixed version to the prefix-less original name,
e.g. bin/foo-2.7 --> bin/foo.

New USES=uniquefiles to make files or directories unique
by adding a prefix or suffix to them.
Files listed in UNIQUE_PREFIX_FILES will receive the prefix
set via UNIQUE_PREFIX. The same applies to UNIQUE_SUFFIX_FILES,
but with the chosen UNIQUE_SUFFIX. UNIQUE_PREFIX and
UNIQUE_SUFFIX are set to PKGNAMEPREFIX and PKGNAMESUFFIX by
default.
The uniquefiles USES enables ports to name files in special
ways, e.g. by outlining that the port does not support X11
(-nox11). A binary named bin/foo thus can be easily renamed
to bin/foo-featureA via
USES= uniquefiles
UNIQUE_SUFFIX= -featureA
UNIQUE_SUFFIX_FILES= bin/foo
The uniquefiles USES automatically adjusts the plist at
installation time. There is no need to consider the prefix
or suffix in the pkg-plist file itself. If the original name
of the renamed file is bin/foo, this exact name should be put
into pkg-plist.
The dirs argument to USES=uniquefiles will cause certain
standard directories, such as DOCSDIR or EXAMPLESDIR to be
prepended with the UNIQUE_PREFIX. The change to the directories
will hapen prior to configuring or building the port, so that
the port Makefile as well as the port's build logic are aware
of the changed name.
Since the uniquefiles USES effectively manipulates the port's
installation and file layout, it will only be available for
stagedir-aware ports. Ports with NO_STAGE=yes will be unable
to use the uniquefiles USES.

lang/python (and as such the 'python' binary and accomplices)
has been removed as default dependency for the USE_PYTHON,
USE_PYTHON_BUILD and USE_PYTHON_RUN knobs.
Ports need to use a designated (default) python interpreter
to build and install and in most cases for execution in the user
environment. Ports that install python scripts, which are not
limited to a certain python version (or version range), can
include lang/python as build and/or run dependency.
USE_PYTHON=yes and similar knobs will only pull in the
default python version (e.g. lang/python27), but none
of the meta ports or lang/python itself.
Please use lang/python as build or run-time dependency only,
if there is no other way to get a port working properly, since
the usage of lang/python complicates package builds for different
python versions.

The ports tree is now staged by default. With pkgng the sequence hasn't
changed, the main difference is that creating package is now independent
from installing it. With pkg_install, the package is now created first
and make install, do install the package.
New macros:
- STAGEDIR: PATH to the directory where the port will be staged.
- NO_STAGE: Keep the old behaviour of the ports tree (aka no staging area)
Unsupported macro if NO_STAGE is not set:
- MAN* with staging man page compression and handling of hardlinks and
symlinks is automatically done in the stage. the manpages becomes then a
"normal" plist files and should be tracked in pkg-plist.
- MANCOMPRESSED the compress-man target is able to only compress when it
needed.
New target:
- stage: this installs everything into the stage directory
- makeplist: this will create a pkg-plist and print it to stdout. This is
a sample plist and it should always be _reviewed_ not directly used.
NOTE: with staging only what is in the plist will be installed, nothing more,
meaning a port staged cannot have leftovers except directories left. It is
really important to double check the pkg-plist to make sure all the files
the maintainer wants to package are in! make makeplist can help in that area.

SSP support has been added to ports with WITH_SSP_PORTS for i386 and amd64
on FreeBSD 10, and amd64 on earlier versions.
SSP_UNSAFE is added to disable in a port if it fails to build, but
this should only be used in rare circumstances such as kernel modules.
Otherwise, the port may just be failing due to lack of respecting
LDFLAGS.
On FreeBSD 10, this uses an ldscript in /usr/lib/libc.so to pull in
libssp_nonshared.a to address issues linking on i386 [1].
On earlier FreeBSD versions the WITH_SSP_PORTS knob will add -lssp_nonshared
to LDFLAGS on i386. This is not needed on amd64. However, several hundred
ports do not currently respect LDFLAGS, so this support is disabled currently
as it causes build failures if a dependency is looking for the stack_chk
symbols.
