./pkgtools/pkg_comp, Build packages inside a chroot jail

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.34, Package name: pkg_comp-1.34, Maintainer: jmmv

pkg_comp is a small utility designed to build packages inside a
clean chroot tree.

Some ideas about what to use it for (taken from manpage):
* Build packages for other system versions. For example, build
packages for NetBSD 1.5 while you are running NetBSD current.
* Build packages using different options than your current system
like changing the threading library, COPTS, placement of
configuration files, etc.
* Debug the build process of a package, checking if buildlinks
work properly.
* Avoid autoconf's side effects by keeping a separate chroot for
each project, like one for GNOME2 and another one for KDE3.
* Schedule builds of package sets for several different machines.

Log message:
Update to 1.34:

- Remove pkg_install version check and rebuild if outdated.  pkgsrc is
  supposed to do that for us.  Addresses PR pkg/38323.

- Don't bother to explicitly builddigest.  pkgsrc DTRT nowadays when
  PKGSRC_COMPILER includes ccache/distcc.

Update to 1.33:

* Make PKG_DBDIR customizable.  This sets the variable in mk.conf, in
  pkg_install.conf and in the environment.

Log message:
Update to 1.32:

* Do not force the install target to take a full package name.  pkg_add will
  automatically pick the latest version.

* When building a package as part of makeroot, make sure it actually gets
  installed.  This is to fix a regression with the switch to USE_DESTDIR=yes.
  Otherwise these packages will get rebuilt later on when needed.

* It is common for calls to mktemp to have 6 placeholders in the template,
  not 4.  Make it so.
