>Description:

A list of problems I encountered with pkgsrc-2005Q3 while compiling under
NetBSD 2.1:

Interestingly, I never had so much trouble with a pkgsrc release before.
Something (or things) are obviously wrong somewhere but I am unable to
pinpoint them.  My last packages build was on 2.0 using pkgsrc-2004Q3
a year back, and the only package that failed building for me then was Dia.
I had roughly the same list of packages to compile to suit my desktop and
server needs.

I thought that a single PR might be enough for all these, since there might
be a common problem somewhere which causes most dependency problems.
The number of packages which compiled flawlessly in my list is 367, so things
otherwise generally went well.


Items with an asterisk (*) are packages I didn't build yet successfuly.
Others needed minor tweaks to build which I could apply.

Items with a plus sign (+) had some problem related to the native X11R6.
They needed that I add the following to mk.conf to build them successfuly:
CFLAGS+=-I/usr/X11R6/include
LDFLAGS+=-Wl,-R/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib

Note: I don't remember which, but some package also needed that I add a
fontconfig package dependency via .include in its Makefile in order for it
to build.

        vim             Configure problems, it uses -lncurses because of
                        CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --with-tlib=ncurses
                        in Makefile instead of --with-tlib=curses
                        (was "fixed" to compile using pkgsrc under linux?)
                        Would pkgsrc popularity lead to other such non-netbsd
                        friendly changes?
                        Note the same problem applies for vim-gtk, vim-gtk2,
                        possibly also vim-xforms and vim-kde...

        wget            had to fix conditionals for openssl in http-* with
                        NetBSD 2.0.2 (or 2.0_STABLE dating a few months back)
                        Because of OpenSSL version change (this affected no
                        other package)
                        Hmm actually I was told it was because of OpenSSL
                        upgrade in 2.1, but under 2.1 the same problem
                        occurred.

+       MesaLib         missing -I/usr/pkg/X11R6/include

        libdvdcss       url to download the file is obsolete and should be
                        changed, works otherwise

+       gd              missing -I/usr/pkg/include and -I/usr/pkg/X11R6/include

*       gphoto          both hashes mismatch (gphoto-0.4.3.tar.gz)
+       gphoto2         Another problem where an existing headerfile can't be
                        found

        python          Error creating package, had to use pkg_tarup.
                        Caused by some files supplied to tar which aren't found
                        causing tar to report error and make package to fail
                        Probably incorrect PLIST

        xlockmore       Same as for python, incorrect PLIST

+       SDL             Again the missing -I/-L

*       cscope          Configure problems.
                        Moreover, also seems to refer to ncurses.

*       nspr            Fails in configure script

*       gaim            Requires nspr above so couldn't build obviously

+       xforms          Missing an -I/usr/X11R6/include with -lXext, needed
                        to manually fix Makefile during build since it won't
                        take LDFLAGS from mk.conf (using imake)

        SDL_sound       Required addition of .include for dependencies of
                        flac and speex

        SDL_mixer       Required addition of .include for dependencies of
                        libmikmod

*       db4             Compilation error

*       fceu            Compilation error

*       MesaDemos       Compilation error

        xawtv           --disable-aalib didn't work, so had to remove it from
                        Makefile and add aalib dependency via .include
                        Also had to add dependency to libdv

        mplayer-share   Had to add --disable-aa in Makefile.common

        sylpheed-claws  Requires gpgme03, but looks for gpgme-config,
                        so doesn't build the pgpmime plugin unless
                        I made a symlink from gpgme-config to gpgme03-config,
                        could perhaps be considered a gpgme03 package bug
                        which should have a symlink.
                        Moreover, had to be built before abiword, since
                        abiword requires gnu libiconv, and if that is
                        installed sylpheed-claws doesn't seem to build
                        properly. (unless fix applied to abiword to use
                        system iconv)

        abiword         By default failed to build without libiconv package
                        installed;  Had to comment USE_GNU_ICONV and
                        the libiconv buildlink .include for it to use the
                        system iconv (another gnu system friendly fix?)



My /etc/mk.conf is as follows:



CFLAGS+=-march=i686 -O2 -pipe

.ifdef BSD_PKG_MK

# Only used as necessary when packages build missed these
#CFLAGS+=-I/usr/X11R6/include
#LDFLAGS+=-Wl,-R/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib

[...acceptable licenses...]

DISTDIR=/usr/distfiles
PKGSRCDIR=/usr/pkgsrc

MPLAYER_DISABLE_DRIVERS=arts esd nas
MPLAYER_USE_MEDIALIB=NO
MOZILLA_USE_LINUX=yes

.endif



Otherwise, $CFLAGS, $CPPFLAGS, $LDFLAGS aren't set by my environment
at this time (i.e. via /etc/profile or ~/.shrc) so it doesn't seem to
have influenced.

The packages I would like the most to be fixed by preference would be:
cscope, db4, nspr, vim


Thanks,
Matt
