Suggested pkgsrc enhancements ============================= o Add a sort check to pkglint for PLISTs. o Allow tokens in Makefiles, etc to silence pkglint WARNS. e.g. # ABS_PATH could silence an absolute path warning such as WARN: possible use of absolute pathname "/usr", in Makefile. o Make pkgsrc work on more operating systems. o Permit cross-building of packages which are capable of doing so (e.g. ones that use GNU autoconf properly). o Man page handling in PLIST for pkgs which install catman or man pages depending on OS (typically imake). Suggested other platform enhancements ===================================== o platform independent bulk build infrastructure o Solaris o add implicit gpatch BUILD_DEPENDS if gpatch is not available Suggested cleanups in pkgsrc ============================ o Make packages install their configuration files under the examples hierarchy, using bsd.pkg.install.mk to copy them to the PKG_SYSCONFDIR directory when necessary. o Make packages install honour PKGLOCALEDIR by setting USE_PKGLOCALEDIR=YES where appropriate (for eg. Solaris). o Deprecate LTCONFIG_OVERRIDE -- replace with appropriate LIBTOOL_OVERRIDE o Fix remaining packages to install documentation into share/doc instead of share/gtk-doc (usually, CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --with-html-dir=${PREFIX}/share/doc/html does the trick; additionally, one might set CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --enable-gtk-doc=no to avoid a gtk-doc dependency if html documentation is shipped with the package). Please fill in GNOME bug reports if any of the packages do not honor these configuration options and/or do not ship with pregenerated html documents. o Make packages utilize USE_X11 instead of USE_X11BASE if there is no good reason to install them into X11BASE. o Remove patches to p5-* packages that strip MAN3POD definitions from Makefile.PL. The perl packages now correctly install man pages, so this workaround isn't needed anymore.
