2000-04-20Warn about too-generous wildcard dependencies, which may prove bogus (usingjdolecek1-4/+14
tk-* as example). Also fix no more accurate info regarding wildcard deps - they are now retained even for binary packages. Suggested by David Brownlee.
2000-03-10Stop phantasizing about merging pkgs back into FreeBSD, instead tell peoplehubertf1-10/+7
to submit patches that apply without fuzz. (Maybe someone could explain the exact issues with this).

2000-01-14Clarify that resuming 'make update' on an unclean source tree will mostrh1-8/+14
certainly fail if the package to be updated changes between the initial and subsequent 'make update's.
2000-01-13Add:hubertf1-1/+10
9.16 What does "Don't know how to make /usr/share/tmap/tmac.andoc" mean? I've seen this the second time now, which sure makes it a FAQ :)
2000-01-05Note that the debugging procedure not only applies to packages thathubertf1-5/+6
come from FreeBSD.

does.

the "makepatchsum" target
1999-07-02Some packages use bsd-style .mk files when building, and so any manualagc1-10/+7
pages that are installed will be gzip-compressed, if MANZ is set, or not if MANZ is not set. If the package uses bsd-style .mk files, the variable MANCOMPRESSED_IF_MANZ should be set to a value of "yes" in the package Makefile. This replaces the previous method of specific inclusion of bsd.prefs.mk, followed by a check for MANZ and conditional assignment of MANCOMPRESSED. Add appropriate documentation, and change all necessary ocurrences in package Makefiles.
1999-04-15Completely replace "MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR" and "PATCH_SITE_SUBDIR" withtron1-4/+4

1999-02-10- mention pkgsrc/mk/mk.conf.example at some points I found reasonablefrueauf1-4/+26
- description of all available options and variables is in packages(7) - add note that part of the import/update process for a package is also noting it in doc/pkg-CHANGES - add some warning comment in the "CPP defines" section - current no longer defines "unix" or "__unix__", so the proposed method is no longer reasonable. Someone who knows how to solve this cleanly should redo this section.
