CVS commit: pkgsrc/mk/pkginstall

[Thomas Klausner <wiz%netbsd.org@localhost>]

Module Name:    pkgsrc
Committed By:   wiz
Date:           Thu Sep 25 14:01:46 UTC 2008

Modified Files:
        pkgsrc/mk/pkginstall: files

Log Message:
Fix a longstanding bug in the pkginstall infrastructure: incomplete
support for creating empty files as CONF_FILES.

The usual way is to add
CONF_FILES= /dev/null /some/file

However, some parts of the infrastructure check if the "source" is a
file -- this fails for /dev/null obviously (other parts accept
character devices already).

Fix this. Will follow up with PKGREVISION bumps for affected packages.

Ok during freeze: agc@
