>Description:
The PLIST for x11/xfce4-session includes a file which
gets included in the system config directory (which is
end system alterable - and which I prefer to alter) but
references it using its full pathname as if PKG_SYSCONFBASE
was not set.
>How-To-Repeat:
Build and install x11/xfce4-session with
PKG_SYSCONFBASE set to something other than the default.
Attempt to make a binary package.
Expect to see ...
=> Checking file-check results for xfce4-session-4.4.1
ERROR: ************************************************************
ERROR: The following files are in the PLIST but not in /usr/pkg:
ERROR: /usr/pkg/etc/xdg/autostart/xfce4-tips-autostart.desktop
*** Error code 1
Look back earlier and notice ...
test -z "/etc/conf/xdg/autostart" || /bin/sh ../mkinstalldirs "/etc/conf/xdg/aut
ostart"
mkdir /etc/conf/xdg/autostart
/usr/bin/install -c -o root -g wheel -m 444 'xfce4-tips-autostart.desktop' '/etc/conf/xdg/autostart/xfce4-tips-autostart.desktop'
where xfce4-tips-autostart.desktop is being installed
(correctly) where it is apparently meant to be installed
(given PKG_SYSCONFBASE=/etc/conf which is what I use).
>Fix:
Somehow make PLIST understand files whose location is not
fixed (or if that one wasn't supposed tobe in PKG_SYSCONFBASE
then don't put it there!)
