OpenBSD Porting Checklist

2009-05-13 08:22:02来源：未知阅读 ()

This document describes how to make or upgrade a port. It is a useful
reminder of things to do. This is neither totally accurate nor perfect.
Direct comments and questions to
ports@openbsd.org.

If you want to be a maintainer, subscribe to
ports@openbsd.org.

This is where all ports discussions take place.
Reading this list is important since many announcements go over this list.
You will find a lot of porting-savvy people there. They can often give you
good advice or test ports for you.

Being a maintainer means more than just submitting ports.
It also means trying to keep them up-to-date, and to answer questions about
them.

Check out a copy of the ports tree from cvs.
You can find instructions on how to do this at the
anonymous cvs page
.

Pick a place to put your port and create the basic
infrastructure there. Use the template Makefile at
/usr/ports/infrastructure/templates/Makefile.template.
NEED_VERSION is obsolete and should not be used in new ports.
As you are a port developer, you are supposed to update
your ports tree, including bsd.port.mk.

Create the directory pkg.
Create the empty files pkg/DESCR, pkg/PLIST.

Add the fetch portions of the Makefile.

Fill in EXTRACT_SUFX if it's anything besides .tar.gz. Other examples are
.tar.Z, or .tgz.
Fill in DISTNAME which is the name of the file minus the extract suffix.
E.g., if you have foo-1.0.tar.gz, DISTNAME is foo-1.0.
Fill in MASTER_SITES which is a URL to the directory where the distfile
is kept. E.g., ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/distfiles/.
Don't forget the trailing slash.
Try to have at least three distinct sites as well.
Place the most easily accessible first as they are traversed in order.
Keep in mind that fetch references the file as
${MASTER_SITES}${DISTNAME}${EXTRACT_SUFX}. All three are used. Don't
set DISTNAME to point to the file directly.
You can check to see if you have filled these values in correctly by typing
make fetch-all.

For more complex ports, you have more options and tools available to you:

You also have the variable PATCHFILES available. This is a list of vendor
(not OpenBSD) patches to the port. Common uses are things like security
or reliability fixes.
If your ports are available over large public mirrors such as GNU, SunSite, or
CPAN, we have already provided a list of sites for your use in
/usr/ports/infrastructure/templates/network.conf.template.
