<p>The NetBSD package system, <span class="emphasis"><em>pkgsrc</em></span>,
is a framework for building third-party software on NetBSD and other
UNIX-like systems. It is used to enable such freely available
software to be configured and built easily on supported platforms.</p>
<p>Once the software
has been built, it is manipulated with the pkg_* tools so that installation
and de-installation, printing of an inventory of all installed packages and
retrieval of one-line comments or more verbose descriptions are all
simple.</p>
<p>pkgsrc currently contains over 3500 packages, including:</p>

</ul></div>
<p>...just to name a few.</p>
<p>pkgsrc has built-in support for handling varying dependencies,
such as pthreads and X11, and extended features such as IPv6 support on
a range of platforms.</p>
<p>pkgsrc was originally developed on NetBSD, and now supports the
following platforms:</p>

This document is divided into two parts.  The first, <a href="#users-guide" title="Part I. pkgsrc user's guide">pkgsrc user's guide</a>,
describes how one can use one of the packages in the Package
Collection, either by installing a precompiled binary package, or
by building one's own copy using the NetBSD package system.  The
second part, <a href="#developers-guide" title="Part II. pkgsrc developer's guide">pkgsrc developer's guide</a>, explains how to prepare
a package so it can be easily built by other NetBSD users without
knowing about the package's building details.

There has been a lot of talk about &#8220;<span class="quote">ports</span>&#8221;,
&#8220;<span class="quote">packages</span>&#8221;, etc. so far. Here is a description of all the
terminology used within this document.
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li>
<p><span class="emphasis"><em>Package</em></span></p>
<p>
A set of files and building instructions that describe what's necessary
to build a certain piece of software using the NetBSD package
system. Packages are traditionally stored under
<tt class="filename">/usr/pkgsrc</tt>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><span class="emphasis"><em>The NetBSD package system</em></span></p>
<p>
This is the part of the NetBSD operating system handling building
(compiling), installing, and removing of packages.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><span class="emphasis"><em>Distfile</em></span></p>
<p>
This term describes the file or files that are provided by the author
of the piece of freely available software to distribute his work. All
the changes necessary to build on NetBSD are reflected in the
corresponding package. Usually the distfile is in the form of a
compressed tar-archive, but other types are possible, too. Distfiles
are stored below <tt class="filename">/usr/pkgsrc/distfiles</tt>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><span class="emphasis"><em>Port</em></span></p>
<p>
This is the term used by FreeBSD people for what we call a package.
In NetBSD terminology, &#8220;<span class="quote">port</span>&#8221; refers to a different
architecture.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><span class="emphasis"><em>Precompiled (binary) package</em></span></p>
<p>
A set of binaries built by the NetBSD package system from a distfile
using the NetBSD package system and stuffed together in a single
<tt class="filename">.tgz</tt> file so it can be installed on machines of the
same machine architecture without the need to recompile. Packages are
generated in <tt class="filename">/usr/pkgsrc/packages</tt> by the NetBSD
package system; there is also an archive on <a href="ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/" target="_top">ftp.NetBSD.org</a>.
</p>
<p>
Sometimes, this is referred to by the term &#8220;<span class="quote">package</span>&#8221; too,
especially in the context of precompiled packages.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><span class="emphasis"><em>Program</em></span></p>
<p>
The piece of software to be installed which will be constructed from
all the files in the Distfile by the actions defined in the
corresponding package. 
</p>
</li>

When giving examples for commands, shell prompts are used to show if the
command should/can be issued as root, or if &#8220;<span class="quote">normal</span>&#8221; user
privileges are sufficient. We use a &#8220;<span class="quote">#</span>&#8221; for root's shell
prompt, and a &#8220;<span class="quote">%</span>&#8221; for users' shell prompt, assuming they use
the C-shell or tcsh.

<a name="id2862465"></a>2.1. Bootstrapping pkgsrc</h2></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
For Operating Systems other than NetBSD, we provide a bootstrap kit to
build the required tools to use pkgsrc on your platform. As well as
native NetBSD support, pkgsrc and the bootstrap kit have support for
the following operating systems:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li>Darwin (MacOS X)</li>
<li>FreeBSD</li>
<li>IRIX</li>
<li>Linux</li>
<li>OpenBSD</li>
<li>Solaris</li>
</ul></div>
<p>
Support for other platforms is under development.
</p>
<p>
Installing the bootstrap kit should be as simple as:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>cvs checkout othersrc/bootstrap-pkgsrc</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>cd othersrc/bootstrap-pkgsrc</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>./bootstrap</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
This will use the defaults of <tt class="filename">/usr/pkg</tt> for the
<span class="emphasis"><em>prefix</em></span>
and <tt class="filename">/var/db/pkg</tt> for the package database directory.
However, these can also be set using command-line parameters.
</p>
<p>
Binary packages for the pkgsrc tools and an initial set of packages is
available for supported platforms. An up-to-date list of these can be
found on <a href="../../software/packages.html" target="_top">www.pkgsrc.org</a>.

<a name="id2863854"></a>2.2.1. Darwin (Mac OS X)</h3></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
Darwin 5.x and 6.x are supported. There are two methods of using
pkgsrc on Mac OS X, by using a <a href="#platform.osx-image" title="2.2.1.1. Using a disk image">disk
image</a>, or a <a href="#platform.osx-ufs" title="2.2.1.2. Using a UFS partition">UFS
partition</a>.
</p>
<p>
If you already have a UFS partition, or have a spare partition
that you can format as UFS, it is recommended to use that instead of
the disk image. It'll be somewhat faster and will mount automatically
at boot time, where you must manually mount a disk image.
</p>
<div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;">
<h3 class="title">Note</h3>
You cannot use a HFS+ file system for pkgsrc, because pkgsrc currently
requires the filesystem to be case-sensitive, and HFS+ is not.

<div><div><h4 class="title">
<a name="platform.osx-ufs"></a>2.2.1.2. Using a UFS partition</h4></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
By default, <tt class="filename">/usr</tt> will be on your root file
system, normally HFS+. It is possible to use the default
<span class="emphasis"><em>prefix</em></span> of <tt class="filename">/usr/pkg</tt>
by symlinking <tt class="filename">/usr/pkg</tt> to a directory on a UFS
file system. Obviously, another symlink is required if you want to
place the package database directory outside the
<span class="emphasis"><em>prefix</em></span>. e.g.

</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>./bootstrap --pkgdbdir=/usr/pkg/pkgdb --pkgsrc=/Volumes/ufs/pkgsrc</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
</p>
<p>
If you created your partitions at the time of installing Mac OS X
and formatted the target partition as UFS, it should automatically
mount on <tt class="filename">/Volumes/&lt;volume name&gt;</tt> when the
machine boots. If you are (re)formatting a partition as UFS, you need
to ensure that the partition map correctly reflects
&#8220;<span class="quote">Apple_UFS</span>&#8221; and not &#8220;<span class="quote">Apple_HFS</span>&#8221;.
</p>
<p>
The problem is that none of the disk tools will let you touch a
disk that is booted from. You can unmount the partition, but even if
you newfs it, the partition type will be incorrect and the
automounter won't mount it. It can be mounted manually, but it won't
appear in Finder.
</p>
<p>
You'll need to boot off of the OS X Installation (User) CD.  When
the Installation program starts, go up to the menu and select Disk
Utility.  Now, you will be able to select the partition you want
to be UFS, and Format it Apple UFS. Quit the Disk Utility, quit the
installer which will reboot your machine. The new UFS file system
will appear in Finder.
</p>
<p>
Be aware that the permissions on the new file system will be writable
by root only.
</p>
<p>
This note is as of 10.2 (Jaguar) and applies to earlier versions.
Hopefully Apple will fix Disk Utility in 10.3 (Panther).

</p>
<p>
Please make sure that you have no conflicting

</div>
<p>
Precompiled packages are stored on ftp.NetBSD.org and its mirrors in the
directory <tt class="filename">/pub/NetBSD/packages</tt> for anonymous FTP access.
Please pick the right
subdirectory there as indicated by <b class="command">uname -p</b>. In that
directory, there is a subdirectory for each category plus a subdirectory
<tt class="filename">All</tt> which includes
the actual binaries in <tt class="filename">.tgz</tt> files. The category
subdirectories use symbolic
links to those files (this is the same directory layout as in
<tt class="filename">/usr/pkgsrc/packages</tt>).
</p>
<p>
This same directory layout applies for CDROM distributions, only that the
directory may be rooted somewhere else, probably somewhere below
<tt class="filename">/cdrom</tt>. Please consult your CDROMs documentation for
the exact location.

<a name="id2935328"></a>3.1.2. Installing binary packages</h3></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
If you have the files on a CDROM or downloaded them to your hard disk, you
can install them with the following command (be sure to
<b class="command">su</b> to root first):
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>pkg_add /path/to/package.tgz</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
If you have FTP access and you don't want to download the packages via FTP
prior to installation, you can do this automatically by giving
<b class="command">pkg_add</b> an FTP URL:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>pkg_add ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/&lt;OS Ver&gt;/&lt;arch&gt;/All/package.tgz</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
If there is any doubt, the uname utility can be used to determine the
&lt;OS Ver&gt;, and &lt;arch&gt; by running <b class="command">uname -rp</b>.
</p>
<p>
Also note that any prerequisite packages needed to run the package in
question will be installed, too, assuming they are present where you install
from.
</p>
<p>
After you've installed packages, be sure to have
<tt class="filename">/usr/pkg/bin</tt> in your <tt class="varname">PATH</tt>
so you can actually start the just installed program.

<div></div>
</div>
<p>
There are three ways to get pkgsrc. Either as a tar file, via SUP, or
via CVS. All three ways are described here.
</p>
<p>
To get the package source going, you need to get the pkgsrc.tar.gz file
from <a href="ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD-current/tar_files/pkgsrc.tar.gz" target="_top">ftp.NetBSD.org</a> and unpack it into <tt class="filename">/usr/pkgsrc</tt>.
</p>
<p>
As an alternative, you can get pkgsrc via the Software Update Protocol,
SUP. To do so, make sure your supfile has a line

</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>release=pkgsrc</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>

in it, see the examples in
<tt class="filename">/usr/share/examples/supfiles</tt>, and that the
<tt class="filename">/usr/pkgsrc</tt> directory exists. Then, simply run
<b class="command">sup -v /path/to/your/supfile</b>.
</p>
<p>
To get pkgsrc via CVS, make sure you have cvs installed. If not present on
your system, it can be found as precompiled binary on ftp.NetBSD.org. 
To do an initial (full) checkout of pkgsrc, do the following steps:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>setenv CVSROOT anoncvs@anoncvs.NetBSD.org:/cvsroot</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>setenv CVS_RSH ssh</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>cd /usr</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>cvs checkout -P pkgsrc</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
This will create the <tt class="filename">pkgsrc</tt> directory in your
<tt class="filename">/usr</tt>, and all the package source will be stored
under <tt class="filename">/usr/pkgsrc</tt>.  To update pkgsrc
after the initial checkout, make sure you have
<tt class="varname">CVS_RSH</tt> set as above, then do:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>cd /usr/pkgsrc</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>cvs -q update -dP</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
Please also note that it is possible to have multiple copies of the
pkgsrc hierarchy in use at any one time - all work is done relatively
within the pkgsrc tree.

<a name="id2937693"></a>3.2.1.2. Fetching distfiles</h4></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
There is one gotcha: The distribution file (i.e. the unmodified source)
must exist on your system for the packages system to be able to build it.
If it does not, then <b class="command">ftp</b> is used to fetch the
distribution files automatically.
</p>
<p>
You can overwrite some of the major distribution sites to fit to sites
that are close to your own.  Have a look at
<tt class="filename">pkgsrc/mk/bsd.pkg.defaults.mk</tt> to find some examples
- in particular, look for the <tt class="varname">MASTER_SORT</tt>,
<tt class="varname">MASTER_SORT_REGEX</tt> and
<tt class="varname">INET_COUNTRY</tt> definitions.  This may save some of your
bandwidth and time.
</p>
<p>
You can change these settings either in your shell's environment, or,
if you want to keep the settings, by editing the
<tt class="filename">/etc/mk.conf</tt> file,
and adding the definitions there.
</p>
<p>
If you don't have a permanent Internet connection and you want to know
which files to download, <b class="command">make fetch-list</b> will tell you
what you'll need. Put these distfiles into
<tt class="filename">/usr/pkgsrc/distfiles</tt>.

<div class="titlepage">
<div><div><h4 class="title">
<a name="id2937763"></a>3.2.1.3. How to build and install</h4></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
Once the distfile(s) have been fetched, building a package is as
simple as changing into the package directory and running make:

</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>cd editors/vim</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Installing the package on your system requires you to be root.
However, pkgsrc has a <span class="emphasis"><em>just-in-time</em></span> su feature,
which allows you to only become root for the actual installation step.
e.g.

</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make install</tt></b>
===&gt; Installing for top-3.5beta5
===&gt; Becoming root@mofo to install top-3.5beta5.
/usr/bin/su Password: <b class="userinput"><tt>&lt;password&gt;</tt></b>
[...installation continues...]</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Taking the top system utility as an example, we can install it on our
system by building as shown in <a href="#logs" title="Appendix A. Build logs">Appendix A, <i>Build logs</i></a>.
</p>
<p>
The program is installed under the default root of the packages tree -
<tt class="filename">/usr/pkg</tt>. Should this not conform to your tastes,
simply set the <tt class="varname">LOCALBASE</tt>
variable in your environment, and it will use that value as the root of
your packages tree. So, to use <tt class="filename">/usr/local</tt>, set
<tt class="varname">LOCALBASE=/usr/local</tt> in your environment.  Please note
that you should use a root which is 
dedicated to packages and not shared with other programs (ie, do not try
and use <tt class="varname">LOCALBASE=/usr</tt>).  Also, you should not try to
add any of your own files or directories (such as <tt class="filename">src/</tt>,
<tt class="filename">obj/</tt>, or <tt class="filename">pkgsrc/</tt>) below the
<tt class="varname">LOCALBASE</tt> tree.  This is to prevent possible conflicts
between programs and other files installed by the package system and
whatever else may have been installed there.
</p>
<p>
There is, of course, one exception to this - X11 packages are traditionally
installed in the X11 tree. The definition used to identify the root of the
X11 tree is the <tt class="varname">X11BASE</tt> definition.
</p>
<p>
It is possible to install X11 packages in the
<tt class="varname">LOCALBASE</tt> tree, for which you must install the
<a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/pkgtools/xpkgwedge/README.html" class="pkgname">pkgtools/xpkgwedge</a> package - see <a href="#build.prefix" title="8.1. Program location">Section 8.1, &#8220;Program location&#8221;</a> for further details.
</p>
<p>
Some packages look in <tt class="filename">/etc/mk.conf</tt> to alter some
configuration options at build time.  Have a look at
<tt class="filename">pkgsrc/mk/bsd.pkg.defaults.mk</tt> to
get an overview of what will be set there by default.  Environment
variables such as <tt class="varname">LOCALBASE</tt>, and
<tt class="varname">X11BASE</tt> can be set in <tt class="filename">/etc/mk.conf</tt> to
save having to remember to set them each time you want to use pkgsrc.
</p>
<p>
Occasionally, people want to &#8220;<span class="quote">look under the covers</span>&#8221; to see
what is going on when a package is building or being installed. This may be
for debugging purposes, or out of simple curiosity. A number of utility
values have been added to help with this.
</p>
<div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1">
<li>
<p>
If you invoke the make(1) command with <tt class="varname">PKG_DEBUG_LEVEL=2</tt>,
then a huge amount of information will be displayed. For example,
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make patch PKG_DEBUG_LEVEL=2</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
will show all the commands that are invoked, up to and including the
&#8220;<span class="quote">patch</span>&#8221; stage.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
If you want to know the value of a certain make(1) definition, then
the <tt class="varname">VARNAME</tt> definition should be used, in conjunction
with the show-var target. e.g.
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make show-var VARNAME=DISTFILES</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
will show the expansion of the make(1) variable
<tt class="varname">DISTFILES</tt>.
</p>
</li>
</ol></div>
<p>
If you want to de-install and re-install a binary package that you've
created (see next section), that you put into pkgsrc/packages manually or
that's located on a remote FTP server, you can use the the &quot;bin-install&quot;
target. This target will install a binary package - if available - via
<b class="command">pkg_add</b>, else do a <b class="command">make package</b>.
The list of remote
FTP sites searched is kept in the variable
<tt class="varname">BINPKG_SITE</tt>, which defaults to
ftp.NetBSD.org. Any flags that should be added to pkg_add(8) can be put
into <tt class="varname">BIN_INSTALL_FLAGS</tt>. See <tt class="filename">pkgsrc/mk/bsd.pkg.defaults.mk</tt> for more details.
</p>
<p>
A final word of warning: If you setup a system that has a non-standard
setting for <tt class="varname">LOCALBASE</tt> (or
<tt class="varname">X11BASE</tt>, for that matter), be sure to set that
before any packages are installed, as you can not use several directories
for the same purpose. Doing so will result in pkgsrc not being able to
properly detect your installed packages, and fail miserably. Note also that
precompiled binary packages are usually built with the default
<tt class="varname">LOCALBASE</tt> of
<tt class="filename">/usr/pkg</tt>, and that you should <span class="emphasis"><em>not</em></span>
install any if you use a non-standard <tt class="varname">LOCALBASE</tt>.

<p> 
  Once you have built and installed a package, you can create a
  <span class="emphasis"><em>binary package</em></span> which can be installed on another
  system with pkg_add(1). This saves having to build the same package on
  a group of hosts and wasting CPU time. It also provides a simple means
  for others to install your package, should you distribute it.
</p>
<p>
  Create a binary package:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>cd sysutils/top</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make package</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  This will build and install your package (if not already done), and then
  build a binary package from what was installed. You can then use the
  <b class="command">pkg_*</b> tools to manipulate it. Binary packages are
  created by default in <tt class="filename">/usr/pkgsrc/packages</tt>, in the
  form of a gzip or bzip2 tar file. See <a href="#logs.package" title="A.2. Packaging top">Section A.2, &#8220;Packaging top&#8221;</a> for

  If you want to get a full set of precompiled binary packages, this section

  configured either on the machine doing the bulk builds or on a nearby NFS
  server can help to make the packages available to everyone. See ftpd(8) for
  more information. If you use a remote NFS server's storage, be sure to not
  actually compile on NFS storage, as this slows things down a lot.

  As <tt class="filename">/usr/pkg</tt> will be completely deleted at the
  start of bulk builds, make sure your login shell is placed somewhere
  else. Either drop it into <tt class="filename">/usr/local/bin</tt>
  (and adjust your login shell in the password file), or (re-)install
  it via <b class="command">pkg_add</b> from
  <tt class="filename">/etc/rc.local</tt>, so you can login after a reboot
  (remember that your current process won't die if the package is
  removed, you just can't start any new instances of the shell any more).
  Also, if you use NetBSD earlier than 1.5, or you still want to use the
  pkgsrc version of ssh for some reason, be sure to install ssh before
  starting it from rc.local:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>( cd /usr/pkgsrc/security/ssh ; make bulk-install )

  The bulk builds consist of three steps:
</p>
<div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1">
<li>pre-build
<p>
  The script updates your pkgsrc via (anon)cvs, then cleans
  out any broken distfiles, and removes all packages installed.
</p>
</li>
<li>the bulk build
<p>
  This is basically &#8220;<span class="quote">make bulk-package</span>&#8221; with an optimised
  order in which packages will be built. Packages that don't require
  other packages will be built first, and packages with many depends
  will be built later.
</p>
</li>
<li>post-build
<p>
  Generates a report that's placed in the directory specified
  in the <tt class="filename">build.conf</tt> file named
  <tt class="filename">broken.html</tt>, a short version of
  that report will also be mailed to the build's admin.
</p>
</li>
</ol></div>
<p>
  During the build, a list of broken packages will be compiled in
  <tt class="filename">/usr/pkgsrc/.broken</tt> (or
  <tt class="filename">.../.broken.${MACHINE}</tt> if
  <tt class="varname">OBJMACHINE</tt> is set),
  individual build logs of broken builds can be found in the package's
  directory. These files are used by the bulk-targets to mark broken builds
  to not waste time trying to rebuild them, and they can be used to debug
  these broken package builds later.

<p>
  Currently, roughly the following requirements are valid for
  1.5/i386:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li>1500MB - distfiles (NFS ok)</li>
<li>1000MB - full set of all binaries (NFS ok)</li>

  For 1.5/alpha:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li>1300MB - full set of all binaries (NFS ok)</li></ul></div>
<p>
  Note that all pkgs will be de-installed as soon as they are turned into a
  binary package, and that work-sources are removed, so there is no huge
  demand to disk space. Afterwards, if the package is needed again, it will
  be installed via &#8220;<span class="quote">pkg_add</span>&#8221; instead of building again, so
  there are no cycles wasted by recompiling.

  If you don't want all the pkgs nuked from a machine (rendering it useless
  for anything but pkg compiling), there is the possibility of doing the pkg
  bulk build inside a chroot environment. 
</p>
<p>
  The first step to do so is setting up a chroot sandbox, e.g. <tt class="filename">/usr/sandbox</tt>.
  After extracting all the sets from a NetBSD installation or doing a

<p>
  If you are a developer and want to upload the resulting binary packages 
  to ftp.NetBSD.org, be sure you are using the default X version for your
  architecture and release (that is XFree86 3.3.6 for 1.5.x, and XFree86
  4.2.1 for NetBSD 1.6.1 on <a href="../../Ports/cats/" target="_top">cats</a>,
  <a href="../../Ports/i386/" target="_top">i386</a> and <a href="../../Ports/macppc/" target="_top">macppc</a> ports, 3.3.6 on all other
  ports).
</p>
<p>
  The next thing you need is a <span class="emphasis"><em>fresh checkout of pkgsrc</em></span>
  (e.g. from anoncvs). Do not mount/link this to the copy of your pkgsrc tree
  you do development in, as this will likely cause problems! Adjust
  <tt class="filename">.../pkgsrc/packages</tt> and
  <tt class="filename">.../pkgsrc/distfiles</tt> to point to some places
  outside the sandbox if you want to make the files public. 
</p>
<p>
  When the chroot sandbox is setup, you can start the build with the following
  steps:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>cd /usr/sandbox/usr/pkgsrc</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>sh mk/bulk/do-sandbox-build</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  This will just jump inside the sandbox and start building.
  At the end of the build, mail will be sent with the results of the build.
  Created binary pkgs will be in
  <tt class="filename">/usr/sandbox/usr/pkgsrc/packages</tt> (wherever
  that points/mounts to/from).

<a name="id2940945"></a>4.4. Creating a multiple CD-ROM packages collection</h2></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
  After your bulk pkgsrc build has completed, you may wish to create a CD-ROM
  set of the resulting binary packages to assist in installing packages on
  other machines.  The <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/pkgtools/cdpack/README.html" class="pkgname">pkgtools/cdpack</a> package provides a simple
  tool for creating the ISO 9660 images. <b class="command">cdpack</b> arranges
  the packages on the CD-ROMs in a way that keeps all the dependencies for
  given package on the same CD as that package.
</p>
<div class="sect2" lang="en">
<div class="titlepage">
<div><div><h3 class="title">
<a name="id2940966"></a>4.4.1. Example of cdpack</h3></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
  Complete documentation for cdpack is found in cdpack(1).  The following
  short example assumes that the binary packages are left in
  <tt class="filename">/usr/pkgsrc/packages/All</tt> and that sufficient disk
  space exists in <tt class="filename">/u2</tt> to hold the ISO 9660 images.
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>mkdir /u2/images</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>pkg_add /usr/pkgsrc/packages/All/cdpack</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>cdpack /usr/pkgsrc/packages/All /u2/images</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  If you wish to include a common set of files
  (<tt class="filename">COPYRIGHT</tt>, <tt class="filename">README</tt>, etc.)
  on each CD in the collection, then you need to create a directory which
  contains these files. e.g.
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>mkdir /tmp/common</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>echo &quot;This is a README&quot; &gt; /tmp/common/README</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>echo &quot;Another file&quot; &gt; /tmp/common/COPYING</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>mkdir /tmp/common/bin</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>echo &quot;#!/bin/sh&quot; &gt; /tmp/common/bin/myscript</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>echo &quot;echo Hello world&quot; &gt;&gt; /tmp/common/bin/myscript</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>chmod 755 /tmp/common/bin/myscript</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  Now create the images:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>cdpack -x /tmp/common /usr/pkgsrc/packages/All /u2/images</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  Each image will contain <tt class="filename">README</tt>,
  <tt class="filename">COPYING</tt>, and <tt class="filename">bin/myscript</tt>
  in their root directories.

</div>
<p>
  Whenever you're preparing a package, there are a number of files
  involved which are described in the following sections.
</p>
<div class="sect1" lang="en">
<div class="titlepage">
<div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both">
<a name="components.Makefile"></a>5.1. Makefile</h2></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
  Building, installation and creation of a binary package are all
  controlled by the package's <tt class="filename">Makefile</tt>.
</p>
<p>
  There is a Makefile for each package. This file includes the standard
  <tt class="filename">bsd.pkg.mk</tt> file (referenced as
  <tt class="filename">../../mk/bsd.pkg.mk</tt>), which sets all the
  definitions and actions necessary for the package to compile and
  install itself. The mandatory variables are the
  <tt class="varname">DISTNAME</tt> which specifies the base name
  of the distribution file to be downloaded from the site on the
  Internet, <tt class="varname">MASTER_SITES</tt> which specifies that site,
  <tt class="varname">CATEGORIES</tt> which denotes the
  categories into which the package falls, <tt class="varname">PKGNAME</tt>
  which is the name of the package, the <tt class="varname">MAINTAINER</tt>
  name, and the <tt class="varname">COMMENT</tt> variable, which should
  contain a one-line description of the package (the package name
  should not appear, it will be added automatically). The maintainer
  variable is there so that anyone who quibbles with the (always
  completely correct) decisions taken by the guy who maintains the
  port can complain vigorously.
</p>
<p>
  The <tt class="varname">MASTER_SITES</tt> may be set to one of the
  predefined sites:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>${MASTER_SITE_XCONTRIB}
${MASTER_SITE_GNU}
${MASTER_SITE_PERL_CPAN}
${MASTER_SITE_TEX_CTAN}
${MASTER_SITE_SUNSITE}
${MASTER_SITE_GNOME}
${MASTER_SITE_SOURCEFORGE}</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  If one of these predefined sites is chosen, you may require the
  ability to specify a subdirectory of that site.  Since these macros
  may expand to more than one actual site, you
  <span class="emphasis"><em>must</em></span> use the following construct to specify a
  subdirectory:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>${MASTER_SITE_GNU:=subdirectory/name/}</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  Note the trailing slash after the subdirectory name.
</p>
<div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;">
<h3 class="title">Note</h3>
<tt class="varname">MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR</tt> has been deprecated and
  <span class="emphasis"><em>should no longer be used</em></span>.
</div>
<p>
  If the package has multiple <tt class="varname">DISTFILES</tt> or multiple
  <tt class="varname">PATCHFILES</tt> from different
  sites, set <tt class="varname">SITES_foo</tt> to a list of URI's where file
  &#8220;<span class="quote">foo</span>&#8221; may be found. &#8220;<span class="quote">foo</span>&#8221;
  includes the suffix, e.g.
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>DISTFILES=	${DISTNAME}${EXTRACT_SUFX}
DISTFILES+=	foo-file.tar.gz
SITES_foo-file.tar.gz=http://www.somewhere.com/somehow/ \
	http://www.somewhereelse.com/mirror/somehow/</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  Note that the normal default setting of <tt class="varname">DISTFILES</tt>
  must be made explicit if you want to add to it (rather than replace
  it), as you usually would.
</p>
<p>
  Currently the following values are available for
  <tt class="varname">CATEGORIES</tt>. If more than
  one is used, they need to be separated by spaces:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>archivers  audio      benchmarks   biology       cad     
chat       comms      converters   cross         databases
devel      editors    emulators    finance       fonts
games      graphics   ham          japanese      lang
mail       math       mbone        misc          net
news       parallel   print        security      shells
sysutils   textproc   time         wm            www
x11</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  Please pay attention to the following gotchas:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li><p>
  Add <tt class="varname">MANCOMPRESSED</tt> if manpages are installed in
  compressed form by the package; see comment in bsd.pkg.mk.
</p></li>
<li><p>
  Replace <tt class="filename">/usr/local</tt> with
  &#8220;<span class="quote">${PREFIX}</span>&#8221; in all files (see patches, below).
</p></li>
<li><p>
  If the package installs any info files, see
  <a href="#features.info-files" title="11.24. Packages providing info files">Section 11.24, &#8220;Packages providing info files&#8221;</a>.
</p></li>
<li><p>

  Most important, the mandatory message digest, or checksum, of all the
  distfiles needed for the package to compile, confirming they match the
  original file distributed by the author.  This ensures that the
  distfile retrieved from the Internet has not been corrupted during
  transfer or altered by a malign force to introduce a security hole. 
  It is best generated using the <b class="command">make makesum</b> command.
  The digest algorithm used was, at one stage, md5, but that was felt
  lacking compared to sha1, and so sha1 is now the default algorithm.
  The distfile size is also generated and stored in new distinfo files.
  The <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/pkgtools/digest/README.html" class="pkgname">pkgtools/digest</a> utility calculates all of the digests
  in the distinfo file, and it provides various different algorithms.
  At the current time, the algorithms provided are:
  <span class="emphasis"><em>md5</em></span>, <span class="emphasis"><em>rmd160</em></span>,
  <span class="emphasis"><em>sha1</em></span>, <span class="emphasis"><em>sha256</em></span>,
  <span class="emphasis"><em>sha384</em></span> and <span class="emphasis"><em>sha512</em></span>.
</p>
<p>
  Some packages have different sets of distfiles on a per architecture
  basis (a good example is <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/www/navigator/README.html" class="pkgname">www/navigator</a>). These are kept in the
  same distinfo file and care should be taken when upgrading such a
  package to ensure distfile information is not lost.
</p>
<p>
  The message digest/checksum for all the official patches found in the
  <tt class="filename">patches/</tt> directory (see <a href="#components.patches" title="5.3. patches/*">Section 5.3, &#8220;patches/*&#8221;</a>) for the package is also stored in
  the <tt class="filename">distinfo</tt> file. This is a message
  digest/checksum of all lines in the patch file except the NetBSD RCS Id.
  This file is generated by invoking <b class="command">make makepatchsum</b>.

<p>
  This directory contains files that are used by the patch(1) command to
  modify the sources as distributed in the distribution file into a form
  that will compile and run perfectly on NetBSD. The files are applied
  successively in alphabetic order (as returned by a shell
  &#8220;<span class="quote">patches/patch-*</span>&#8221; glob expansion), so
  <tt class="filename">patch-aa</tt> is applied before
  <tt class="filename">patch-ab</tt>, etc.
</p>
<p>
  The <tt class="filename">patch-??</tt> files should be in
  <b class="command">diff -bu</b> format, and apply without a fuzz to avoid
  problems (To force patches to apply
  with fuzz you can set <tt class="varname">PATCH_FUZZ_FACTOR=-F2</tt>).
  Furthermore, do not put changes for more than one file into a single
  patch-file, as this will make future modifications more difficult.
</p>
<p>
  Similar, a file should be patched at most once, not several times by
  several different patches. If a file needs several patches, they should
  be combined into one file.
</p>
<p>
  One important thing to mention is to pay attention that no RCS IDs
  get stored in the patch files, as these will cause problems when
  later checked into the NetBSD CVS tree. Use the
  <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/pkgtools/pkgdiff/README.html" class="pkgname">pkgtools/pkgdiff</a> package to avoid these problems.
</p>
<p>
  For even more automation, we recommend using mkpatches from the same
  package to make a whole set of patches. You just have to backup files
  before you edit them to <tt class="filename">filename.orig</tt>, e.g. with
  <b class="command">cp -p filename filename.orig</b> or, easier, by using
  <b class="command">pkgvi</b> from the same package. If you upgrade a package
  this way, you can easily compare the new set of patches with the
  previously existing one with patchdiff.
</p>
<p>
  When you have finished a package, remember to generate the checksums
  for the patch files by using the <b class="command">make makepatchsum</b>
  command, see <a href="#components.distinfo" title="5.2. distinfo">Section 5.2, &#8220;distinfo&#8221;</a>.
</p>
<p>
  If it is desired to store any patches that should not be committed into
  pkgsrc, they can be kept outside the pkgsrc tree in the
  <tt class="filename">$LOCALPATCHES</tt>
  directory. The directory tree there is expected to have the same
  &#8220;<span class="quote">category/package</span>&#8221; structure as pkgsrc, and patches are
  expected to be stored inside these dirs (also known as
  <tt class="filename">$LOCALPATCHES/$PKGPATH</tt>). For
  example if you want to keep a private patch for
  <tt class="filename">pkgsrc/graphics/png</tt>, keep
  it in <tt class="filename">$LOCALPATCHES/graphics/png/mypatch</tt>. All
  files in the named directory are expected to be patch files, and
  <span class="emphasis"><em>they are applied after pkgsrc patches are applied</em></span>.

<li>
<p>NetBSD RCS Id</p>
<p>
   Be sure to add a RCS ID line as the first thing in any
   <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt> file you write:
</p>
<p>
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>@comment $NetBSD: pkgsrc.html,v 1.1 2003/06/23 07:41:44 grant Exp $</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>${MACHINE_ARCH}, ${MACHINE_GNU_ARCH}</p>
<p>
   Some packages like emacs and perl embed information about which
   architecture they were built on into the pathnames where they install
   their file. To handle this case, PLIST will be preprocessed before
   actually used, and the symbol &quot;${MACHINE_ARCH}&quot; will be replaced by
   what <b class="command">uname -p</b> gives. The same is done if the string
   ${MACHINE_GNU_ARCH} is embedded in PLIST somewhere - use this on
   packages that have GNU autoconf created configure scripts.
</p>
<p>
   Legacy note: There used to be a symbol &quot;&lt;$ARCH&gt;&quot; that was replaced by
   the output of <b class="command">uname -m</b>, but that's no longer supported
   and has been removed.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>${OPSYS}, ${LOWER_OPSYS}, ${OS_VERSION}</p>
<p>
   Some packages want to embed the OS name and version into some paths.
   To do this, use these variables in the <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt>:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="circle">
<li>${OPSYS} - output of &quot;uname -s&quot;</li>
<li>${LOWER_OPSYS} - lowercase common name (eg. &quot;solaris&quot;)</li>
<li>${OS_VERSION} - &quot;uname -r&quot;</li>
</ul></div>
</li>
<li>
<p>${PKGLOCALEDIR}</p>
<p>
   Packages that install locale files should list them in the PLIST as
   &#8220;<span class="quote">${PKGLOCALEDIR}/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/...</span>&#8221; instead of
   &#8220;<span class="quote">share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/...</span>&#8221;.  This properly handles
   the fact that different OS's expect locale files to be either in
   <tt class="filename">share</tt> or <tt class="filename">lib</tt> by default.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Manpage-compression</p>
<p>
   Manpages should be installed in compressed form if
   <tt class="varname">MANZ</tt> is set (in <tt class="filename">bsd.own.mk</tt>),
   and uncompressed otherwise. To handle this in the
   <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt> file, the suffix &#8220;<span class="quote">.gz</span>&#8221; is
   appended/removed automatically for manpages according to
   <tt class="varname">MANZ</tt> and <tt class="varname">MANCOMPRESSED</tt> being set
   or not, see above for details. This modification of the
   <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt> file is done on a copy of it, not
   <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt> itself.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Platform specific and differing PLISTs</p>
<p>
   Some packages decide to install a different set of files based on
   the operating system being used. These differences can be
   automatically handled by using the following files:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="circle">
<li><tt class="filename">PLIST.common</tt></li>
<li><tt class="filename">PLIST.${OPSYS}</tt></li>
<li><tt class="filename">PLIST.common_end</tt></li>
</ul></div>
<p>
   If <tt class="filename">PLIST.${OPSYS}</tt> exists, these files are used
   instead of <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt>. This allows packages which
   behave in this way to be handled gracefully.  Manually overriding
   <tt class="varname">PLIST_SRC</tt> for other more exotic uses is also
   possible.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Semi-automatic <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt> generation</p>
<p>
   You can use the <b class="command">make print-PLIST</b> command to output
   a PLIST that matches any new files since the package was extracted.
   See below for more information on this target.
</p>
</li>
</ul></div>

<a name="id2945543"></a>6.2. PLIST_SRC</h2></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
To use one or more files as source for the <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt> used
in generating the binary package, set the variable
<tt class="varname">PLIST_SRC</tt> to the names of that file(s).
The files are later concatenated using cat(1), and order of things is
important.

Similar to <tt class="varname">MESSAGE_SUBST</tt> (see above), you can add
variables and their expansions to this variable in the following way:

<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>PLIST_SUBST+=    SOMEVAR=&quot;somevalue&quot;</pre></td></tr></table>

<tt class="filename">PLIST</tt> with &#8220;<span class="quote">somevalue</span>&#8221;.

Makefile of packages providing perl5 modules should include the
makefile fragment <tt class="filename">lang/perl5/module.mk</tt>.  It provides
a do-configure
target for the standard perl configuration for such modules as well
as various hooks to tune this configuration.  See comments in this

</p>
<p>
Perl5 modules will install into different places depending on the version
of perl used during the build process.  To address this, the NetBSD
packages system will append lines to the <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt>
corresponding to the files
listed in the installed .packlist file generated by most perl5 modules.
This is invoked by defining <tt class="varname">PERL5_PACKLIST</tt> to a
space-separated list of paths to packlist files:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>PERL5_PACKLIST=	${PERL5_SITEARCH}/auto/Pg/.packlist</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
The variables <tt class="varname">PERL5_SITELIB</tt>,
<tt class="varname">PERL5_SITEARCH</tt>, and <tt class="varname">PERL5_ARCHLIB</tt>
represent the three locations in which perl5 modules may be installed, and
may be used by perl5 packages that don't have a packlist.  These three
variables are also substituted for in the <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt>.

<p>
  To port an application to NetBSD, it's usually necessary for the
  compiler to be able to judge the system on which it's compiling, and
  we use definitions so that the C pre-processor can do this.
</p>
<p>
  To test whether you are working on a 4.4 BSD-derived system, you
  should use the BSD definition, which is defined in
  <tt class="filename">&lt;sys/param.h&gt;</tt> on said systems.
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>#include &lt;sys/param.h&gt;</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  and then you can surround the BSD-specific parts of your port using
  the conditional:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>#if (defined(BSD) &amp;&amp; BSD &gt;= 199306)
  ...
#endif</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  Please use the &#8220;<span class="quote">__NetBSD__</span>&#8221; definition sparingly - it
  should only apply to features of NetBSD that are not present in other
  4.4-lite derived BSDs.

</div>
<p>
  pkgsrc supports many different machines, with different object formats
  like a.out and ELF, and varying abilities to do shared library and
  dynamic loading at all. To accompany this, varying commands and options
  have to be passed to the compiler, linker, etc. to get the Right Thing,
  which can be pretty annoying especially if you don't have all the
  machines at your hand to test things.  The <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/devel/libtool/README.html" class="pkgname">devel/libtool</a> pkg
  can help here, as it just &#8220;<span class="quote">knows</span>&#8221; how to build both static
  and dynamic libraries from a set of source files, thus being platform
  independent. 
</p>
<p>
  Here's how to use libtool in a pkg in seven simple steps:
</p>
<div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1">
<li><p>
  Add <tt class="varname">USE_LIBTOOL=yes</tt> to the package Makefile.
</p></li>
<li><p>
  For library objects, use &#8220;<span class="quote">${LIBTOOL} --mode=compile
  ${CC}</span>&#8221; in place of &#8220;<span class="quote">${CC}</span>&#8221;. You could even
  add it to the definition of <tt class="varname">CC</tt>, if only
  libraries are being built in a given Makefile. This one command
  will build both PIC and non-PIC library objects, so you need not
  have separate shared and non-shared library rules.
</p></li>
<li>
<p>
  For the linking of the library, remove any &#8220;<span class="quote">ar</span>&#8221;,
  &#8220;<span class="quote">ranlib</span>&#8221;, and &#8220;<span class="quote">ld -Bshareable</span>&#8221; commands,
  and use instead:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>${LIBTOOL} --mode=link ${CC} -o ${.TARGET:.a=.la} ${OBJS:.o=.lo} -rpath ${PREFIX}/lib -version-info major:minor</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  Note that the library is changed to have a <tt class="filename">.la</tt>
  extension, and the objects are changed to have a
  <tt class="filename">.lo</tt> extension. Change <tt class="varname">OBJS</tt>
  as necessary. This automatically creates all of the
  <tt class="filename">.a</tt>, <tt class="filename">.so.major.minor</tt>,
  and ELF symlinks (if necessary) in the build directory. Be sure
  to include &#8220;<span class="quote">-version-info</span>&#8221;, especially when major
  and minor are zero, as libtool will otherwise strip off the
  shared library version.
</p>
<p>
  The &#8220;<span class="quote">-release</span>&#8221; option will produce different results for
  a.out and ELF (excluding symlinks) in only one case. An ELF library of
  the form
  &#8220;<span class="quote">libfoo-release.so.<span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span>.<span class="emphasis"><em>y</em></span></span>&#8221;
  will have a symlink of
  &#8220;<span class="quote">libfoo.so.<span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span>.<span class="emphasis"><em>y</em></span></span>&#8221;
  on an a.out platform. This is handled automatically.
</p>
<p>
  The &#8220;<span class="quote">-rpath argument</span>&#8221; is the install directory of the
  library being built.
</p>
<p>
  In the <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt>, include all of the
  <tt class="filename">.a</tt>, <tt class="filename">.la</tt>, and
  <tt class="filename">.so</tt>,
  <tt class="filename">.so.<span class="emphasis"><em>major</em></span></tt> and
  <tt class="filename">.so.<span class="emphasis"><em>major</em></span>.<span class="emphasis"><em>minor</em></span></tt>
  files.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
  When linking shared object (<tt class="filename">.so</tt>) files,
  i.e. files that are loaded via dlopen(3), NOT shared libraries,
  use &#8220;<span class="quote">-module -avoid-version</span>&#8221; to prevent them
  getting version tacked on.
</p>
<p>
  <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt> gets the <tt class="filename">foo.so</tt>
  entry.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
  When linking programs that depend on these libraries
  <span class="emphasis"><em>before</em></span> they are installed, preface the
  <b class="command">cc</b> or <b class="command">ld</b> line with
  &#8220;<span class="quote">${LIBTOOL} --mode=link</span>&#8221;, and
  it will find the correct libraries (static or shared), but
  please be aware that libtool will not allow you to specify
  a relative path in -L (such as &#8220;<span class="quote">-L../somelib</span>&#8221;),
  because it expects you to change that argument to be the
  <tt class="filename">.la</tt> file. e.g.
</p>
<div class="informalexample"><table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>${LIBTOOL} --mode=link ${CC} -o someprog -L../somelib -lsomelib</pre></td></tr></table></div>
<p>
  should be changed to:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>${LIBTOOL} --mode=link ${CC} -o someprog ../somelib/somelib.la</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  and it will do the right thing with the libraries.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
  When installing libraries, preface the <b class="command">install</b>
  or <b class="command">cp</b> command with
  &#8220;<span class="quote">${LIBTOOL} --mode=install</span>&#8221;, and change the library
  name to <tt class="filename">.la</tt>. e.g.
</p>
<div class="informalexample"><table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>${LIBTOOL} --mode=install ${BSD_INSTALL_DATA} ${SOMELIB:.a=.la} ${PREFIX}/lib</pre></td></tr></table></div>
<p>
  This will install the static <tt class="filename">.a</tt>, shared
  library, any needed symlinks, and run <b class="command">ldconfig</b>.

  ltconfig is overridden, using <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/devel/libtool/README.html" class="pkgname">devel/libtool</a> instead of
  the pkg's own libtool. For newer versions of libtool (without
  ltconfig) it may be necessary to use
  <tt class="varname">LIBTOOL_OVERRIDE=${WRKSRC}/libtool</tt> instead.
</p>
<p>
  If your package makes use of the platform independent library
  for loading dynamic shared objects, that comes with libtool
  (libltdl), you should include the libtool buildlink2.mk (and
  set <tt class="varname">USE_BUILDLINK2=YES</tt>).
</p>
<p>
  Some packages use libtool incorrectly so that the package may not work or
  build in some circumstances. Some of the more common errors are:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li>
  The inclusion of a shared object (-module) as a dependent library in an

<p>
  If a package needs GNU autoconf or automake to be executed
  to regenerate the configure script and Makefile.in makefile
  templates, then they should be executed in a pre-configure
  target. Two Makefile fragments are provided in
  pkgsrc/mk/autoconf.mk and pkgsrc/mk/automake.mk to help
  dealing with these tools. See comments in these files for
  details.
</p>
<p>
  For packages that need only autoconf:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>AUTOCONF_REQD=	2.50	# if default version is not good enough
...

pre-configure:
	cd ${WRKSRC}; ${AUTOCONF}

...
.include &quot;../../mk/autoconf.mk&quot;</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
and for packages that need automake and autoconf:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>AUTOMAKE_REQD=	1.7.1	# if default version is not good enough

...
.include &quot;../mk/automake.mk&quot;</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  There are times when the configure process makes additional
  changes to the generated files, which then causes the build
  process to try to re-execute the automake sequence.  This is
  prevented by touching various files in the configure stage. If
  this causes problems with your package you can set
  <tt class="varname">AUTOMAKE_OVERRIDE=NO</tt> in the package
  Makefile.

  particular package, where <tt class="varname">PKG_SYSCONFVAR</tt>
  defaults to <tt class="varname">${PKGBASE}</tt>. This is not meant to

  The basic steps for building a program are always the same.  First the
  program's source (<span class="emphasis"><em>distfile</em></span>) must be brought to the
  local system and then extracted. After any patches to compile properly
  on NetBSD are applied, the software can be configured, then built
  (usually by compiling), and finally the generated binaries, etc. can be
  put into place on the system. These are exactly the steps performed by
  the NetBSD package system, which is implemented as a series of targets
  in a central Makefile, <tt class="filename">pkgsrc/mk/bsd.pkg.mk</tt>.

<div></div>
</div>
<p>
  Before outlining the process performed by the NetBSD package system in
  the next section, here's a brief discussion on where programs are
  installed, and which variables influence this.
</p>
<p>
  The automatic variable <tt class="varname">PREFIX</tt> indicates where all
  files of the final program shall be installed. It is usually set to
  <tt class="varname">LOCALBASE</tt> (<tt class="filename">/usr/pkg</tt>), or
  <tt class="varname">CROSSBASE</tt> for pkgs in the &#8220;<span class="quote">cross</span>&#8221;
  category, though its value becomes that of <tt class="varname">X11BASE</tt> if
  <tt class="varname">USE_IMAKE</tt> or <tt class="varname">USE_X11BASE</tt> is set.
  The value of <tt class="varname">PREFIX</tt> needs to be put into the various
  places in the program's source where paths to these files are encoded.
  See <a href="#components.patches" title="5.3. patches/*">Section 5.3, &#8220;patches/*&#8221;</a> and <a href="#fixes.libtool" title="7.2. Shared libraries - libtool">Section 7.2, &#8220;Shared libraries - libtool&#8221;</a> for more details.
</p>
<p>
  When choosing which of these variables to use, follow the following rules:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li><p>
  <tt class="varname">PREFIX</tt> always points to the location where the current
  pkg will be installed.  When referring to a pkg's own installation path,
  use &#8220;<span class="quote">${PREFIX}</span>&#8221;.
</p></li>
<li><p>
  <tt class="varname">LOCALBASE</tt> is where all non-X11 pkgs are installed.
  If you need to construct a -I or -L argument to the compiler to find
  includes and libraries installed by another non-X11 pkg, use
  &#8220;<span class="quote">${LOCALBASE}</span>&#8221;.
</p></li>
<li><p>
  <tt class="varname">X11BASE</tt> is where the actual X11 distribution (from
  xsrc, etc.) is installed. When looking for
  <span class="emphasis"><em>standard</em></span> X11 includes (not
  those installed by a pkg), use &#8220;<span class="quote">${X11BASE}</span>&#8221;.
</p></li>
<li><p>
  X11 based pkgs are special in that they may be installed in either
  <tt class="varname">X11BASE</tt> or <tt class="varname">LOCALBASE</tt>. To install X11
  packages in <tt class="varname">LOCALBASE</tt>, simply install
  <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/pkgtools/xpkgwedge/README.html" class="pkgname">pkgtools/xpkgwedge</a>. If you need to find includes or libraries
  installed by a pkg that has <tt class="varname">USE_IMAKE</tt> or
  <tt class="varname">USE_X11BASE</tt> in its pkg Makefile, you need to
  use <span class="emphasis"><em>both</em></span> &#8220;<span class="quote">${X11BASE}</span>&#8221; and
  &#8220;<span class="quote">${LOCALBASE}</span>&#8221;.
</p></li>
<li><p>
  <tt class="varname">X11PREFIX</tt> should be used to refer to the installed
  location of an X11 package. <tt class="varname">X11PREFIX</tt> will be set to
  <tt class="varname">X11BASE</tt> if xpkgwedge is not installed,
  and to <tt class="varname">LOCALBASE</tt> if xpkgwedge is installed.
</p></li>
<li>
<p>
  If xpkgwedge is installed, it is possible to have some packages installed
  in <tt class="varname">X11BASE</tt> and some in <tt class="varname">LOCALBASE</tt>.
  To determine the prefix of an installed package, the
  <tt class="varname">EVAL_PREFIX</tt> definition can be used. It takes pairs in the
  format &#8220;<span class="quote">DIRNAME=&lt;package&gt;</span>&#8221;, and the make(1) variable
  <tt class="varname">DIRNAME</tt> will be set to the prefix of the installed
  package &lt;package&gt;, or &#8220;<span class="quote">${X11PREFIX}</span>&#8221; if the package is
  not installed.
</p>
<p>
  This is best illustrated by example.
</p>
<p>
  The following lines are taken from
  <tt class="filename">pkgsrc/wm/scwm/Makefile</tt>:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>EVAL_PREFIX+=		GTKDIR=gtk+
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=	--with-guile-prefix=${LOCALBASE}	\
			--with-gtk-prefix=&quot;${GTKDIR}&quot;		\
			--enable-multibyte</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  Specific defaults can be defined for the packages evaluated using
  <tt class="varname">EVAL_PREFIX</tt>, by using a definition of the form:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>GTKDIR_DEFAULT= ${LOCALBASE}</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  where <tt class="varname">GTKDIR</tt> corresponds to the first definition in
  the <tt class="varname">EVAL_PREFIX</tt> pair.

<a name="id2949108"></a>8.2. Main targets</h2></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
  The main targets used during the build process defined in
<tt class="filename">bsd.pkg.mk</tt> are:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li>
<p>fetch</p>
<p>
  This will check if the file(s) given in the variables
  <tt class="varname">DISTFILES</tt> and <tt class="varname">PATCHFILES</tt> (as
  defined in the package's Makefile) are present on the
  local system in <tt class="filename">/usr/pkgsrc/distfiles</tt>. If they
  are not present, an attempt will be made to fetch them using commands
  of the form:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>${FETCH_CMD} ${FETCH_BEFORE_ARGS} ${site}${file} ${FETCH_AFTER_ARGS}</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  where ${site} varies through several possibilities in turn: first,
  <tt class="varname">MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE</tt> is tried, then the sites
  specified in either <tt class="varname">SITES_file</tt> if defined, else
  <tt class="varname">MASTER_SITES</tt> or <tt class="varname">PATCH_SITES</tt>, as
  applies, then finally the value of
  <tt class="varname">MASTER_SITE_BACKUP</tt>. The order of all except the
  first can be optionally sorted by the user, via setting either
  <tt class="varname">MASTER_SORT_AWK</tt> or
  <tt class="varname">MASTER_SORT_REGEX</tt>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>checksum</p>
<p>
  After the distfile(s) are fetched, their checksum is generated and
  compared with the checksums stored in the distinfo file. If the
  checksums don't match, the build is aborted. This is to ensure the same
  distfile is used for building, and that the distfile wasn't changed,
  e.g. by some malign force, deliberately changed distfiles on the master
  distribution site or network lossage.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>extract</p>
<p>
  When the distfiles are present on the local system, they need to be
  extracted, as they are usually in the form of some compressed archive
  format, most commonly <tt class="filename">.tar.gz</tt>. If only some of
  the distfiles need to be uncompressed, the files to be uncompressed
  should be put into <tt class="varname">EXTRACT_ONLY</tt>. If the distfiles
  are not in <tt class="filename">.tar.gz</tt> format, they can be
  extracted by setting <tt class="varname">EXTRACT_CMD</tt>,
  <tt class="varname">EXTRACT_BEFORE_ARGS</tt> and/or
  <tt class="varname">EXTRACT_AFTER_ARGS</tt>. 
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>patch</p>
<p>
  After extraction, all the patches named by the
  <tt class="varname">PATCHFILES</tt>, those present in the patches
  subdirectory of the package as well as in $LOCALPATCHES/$PKGPATH (e.g.
  <tt class="filename">/usr/local/patches/graphics/png</tt>) are applied.
  Patchfiles ending in <tt class="filename">.Z</tt> or
  <tt class="filename">.gz</tt> are uncompressed before they are applied,
  files ending in <tt class="filename">.orig</tt> or
  <tt class="filename">.rej</tt> are ignored. Any special options to patch(1)
  can be handed in <tt class="varname">PATCH_DIST_ARGS</tt>.
  See <a href="#components.patches" title="5.3. patches/*">Section 5.3, &#8220;patches/*&#8221;</a> for more details.
</p>
<p> 
  By default patch is given special args to make it fail if the
  patches with some lines of fuzz. Please fix (regen) the patches
  so that they apply cleanly. The rationale behind this is that
  patches that apply cleanly may end up being applied in the wrong
  place, and cause severe harm there.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>configure</p>
<p>
  Most pieces of software need information on the header files,
  system calls, and library routines which are available in NetBSD. 
  This is the process known as configuration, and is usually
  automated.  In most cases, a script is supplied with the source,
  and its invocation results in generation of header files,
  Makefiles, etc.
</p>
<p>
  If the program's distfile contains its own configure script, this can
  be invoked by setting <tt class="varname">HAS_CONFIGURE</tt>. If the
  configure script is a GNU autoconf script,
  <tt class="varname">GNU_CONFIGURE</tt> should be specified instead. In either
  case, any arguments to the configure script can be specified in the
  <tt class="varname">CONFIGURE_ARGS</tt> variable, and the configure script's
  name can be set in <tt class="varname">CONFIGURE_SCRIPT</tt> if it differs
  from the default &#8220;<span class="quote">configure</span>&#8221;.
</p>
<p>
  If the program uses an Imakefile for configuration, the appropriate
  steps can be invoked by setting <tt class="varname">USE_IMAKE</tt> to
  &#8220;<span class="quote">YES</span>&#8221;. (If you only want the package installed in
  <tt class="varname">$X11PREFIX</tt> but xmkmf not being run, set
  <tt class="varname">USE_X11BASE</tt> instead!)
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>build</p>
<p>
  Once configuration has taken place, the software can be built on
  NetBSD by invoking <tt class="varname">$MAKE_PROGRAM</tt> on
  <tt class="varname">$MAKEFILE</tt> with <tt class="varname">$ALL_TARGET</tt> as
  the target to build.  The default <tt class="varname">MAKE_PROGRAM</tt> is
  &#8220;<span class="quote">gmake</span>&#8221; if <tt class="varname">USE_GMAKE</tt> is set,
  &#8220;<span class="quote">make</span>&#8221; otherwise. <tt class="varname">MAKEFILE</tt> is set to
  &#8220;<span class="quote">Makefile</span>&#8221; by default, and <tt class="varname">ALL_TARGET</tt>
  defaults to &#8220;<span class="quote">all</span>&#8221;.  Any of these variables can be set to
  change the default build process.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>install</p>
<p>
  Once the build stage has completed, the final step is to install
  the software in public directories, for users.  As in the
  build-target, <tt class="varname">$MAKE_PROGRAM</tt> is invoked on
  <tt class="varname">$MAKEFILE</tt> here, but with the
  <tt class="varname">$INSTALL_TARGET</tt> instead, the latter defaulting to
  &#8220;<span class="quote">install</span>&#8221; (plus &#8220;<span class="quote">install.man</span>&#8221;, if
  <tt class="varname">USE_IMAKE</tt> is set). 
</p>
</li>
</ul></div>
<p>
  If no target is specified, the default is &#8220;<span class="quote">build</span>&#8221;.
  If a subsequent stage is requested, all prior stages are made: e.g.
  <b class="command">make build</b> will also perform the equivalent of:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>make fetch

<a name="build.helpful-targets"></a>8.3. Other helpful targets</h2></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li>
<p>pre/post-*</p>
<p>
  For any of the main targets described in the previous section, two
  auxiliary targets exist with &#8220;<span class="quote">pre-</span>&#8221; and
  &#8220;<span class="quote">post-</span>&#8221; used as a prefix
  for the main target's name.  These targets are invoked before and
  after the main target is called, allowing extra configuration or
  installation steps, for example, which program's configure script
  or install target omitted.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>do-*</p>
<p>
  Should one of the main targets do the wrong thing, and should there
  be no variable to fix this, you can redefine it with the do-*
  target.  (Note that redefining the target itself instead of the
  do-* target is a bad idea, as the pre-* and post-* targets won't be
  called anymore, etc.) You will not usually need to do this.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>reinstall</p>
<p>
  If you did a <b class="command">make install</b> and you noticed some file
  was not installed properly, you can repeat the installation with this
  target, which will ignore the &#8220;<span class="quote">already installed</span>&#8221; flag.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>deinstall</p>
<p>
  This target does a pkg_delete(1) in the current directory,
  effectively de-installing the package. The following variables can
  be used either on the command line or in
  <tt class="filename">/etc/mk.conf</tt> to tune the behaviour:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="circle">
<li>
<p><tt class="varname">PKG_VERBOSE</tt></p>
<p>
  Add a &quot;-v&quot; to the pkg_delete(1) command.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><tt class="varname">DEINSTALLDEPENDS</tt></p>
<p>
  Remove all packages that require (depend on) the given package.
  This can be used to remove any packages that may have been pulled in
  by a given package, e.g. if <b class="command">make deinstall
  DEINSTALLDEPENDS=1</b> is done in
  <tt class="filename">pkgsrc/x11/kde</tt>, this is likely to remove whole
  KDE. Works by adding &#8220;<span class="quote">-R</span>&#8221; to the pkg_delete command line.
</p>
</li>
</ul></div>
</li>
<li>
<p>update</p>
<p>
  This target causes the current package to be updated to the latest
  version.  The package and all depending packages first get de-installed,
  then current versions of the corresponding packages get compiled and
  installed.  This is similar to manually noting which packages are
  currently installed, then performing a series of <b class="command">make
  deinstall</b> and <b class="command">make install</b> (or whatever
  <tt class="varname">UPDATE_TARGET</tt> is set to) for these packages.
</p>
<p>
  You can use the &#8220;<span class="quote">update</span>&#8221; target to resume package
  updating in case a previous <b class="command">make update</b> was interrupted
  for some reason.  However, in this case, make sure you don't call
  <b class="command">make clean</b> or otherwise remove the list of dependent
  packages in <tt class="varname">WRKDIR</tt>.  Otherwise you lose the
  ability to automatically update the current package along with the
  dependent packages you have installed.
</p>
<p>
  Resuming an interrupted <b class="command">make update</b> will only work as
  long as the package tree remains unchanged.  If the source code for
  one of the packages to be updated has been changed, resuming
  <b class="command">make update</b> will most certainly fail!
</p>
<p>
  The following variables can be used either on the command line or in
  <tt class="filename">/etc/mk.conf</tt> to alter the behaviour of
  <b class="command">make update</b>:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="circle">
<li>
<tt class="varname">UPDATE_TARGET</tt><p>
  Install target to recursively use for the updated package and the
  dependent packages.  Defaults to <tt class="varname">DEPENDS_TARGET</tt> if set,
  &#8220;<span class="quote">install</span>&#8221; otherwise for <b class="command">make update</b>.
  e.g. <b class="command">make update UPDATE_TARGET=package</b>
</p>
</li>
<li>
<tt class="varname">NOCLEAN</tt><p>
  Don't clean up after updating.  Useful if you want to leave the
  work sources of the updated packages around for inspection or
  other purposes.  Be sure you eventually clean up the source
  tree (see the &#8220;<span class="quote">clean-update</span>&#8221; target below) or you may
  run into troubles with old source code still lying around on your
  next <b class="command">make</b> or <b class="command">make update</b>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<tt class="varname">REINSTALL</tt><p>
  Deinstall each package before installing (making
  <tt class="varname">DEPENDS_TARGET</tt>). This may be necessary if the
  &#8220;<span class="quote">clean-update</span>&#8221; target (see below) was called after
  interrupting a running <b class="command">make update</b>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<tt class="varname">DEPENDS_TARGET</tt><p>
  Allows you to disable recursion and hardcode the target for
  packages.  The default is &#8220;<span class="quote">update</span>&#8221; for the update target,
  facilitating a recursive update of prerequisite packages.
  Only set <tt class="varname">DEPENDS_TARGET</tt> if you want to disable
  recursive updates. Use <tt class="varname">UPDATE_TARGET</tt> instead to just
  set a specific target for each package to be installed during
  <b class="command">make update</b> (see above).
</p>
</li>
</ul></div>
</li>
<li>
<p>clean-update</p>
<p>
  Clean the source tree for all packages that would get updated if
  <b class="command">make update</b> was called from the current directory.
  This target should not be used if the current package (or any of its
  depending packages) have already been de-installed (e.g., after calling
  <b class="command">make update</b>) or you may lose some packages you intended
  to update. As a rule of thumb: only use this target
  <span class="emphasis"><em>before</em></span> the first time you run
  <b class="command">make update</b> and only if you have a dirty package tree
  (e.g., if you used <tt class="varname">NOCLEAN</tt>).
</p>
<p>
  If you unsure about whether your tree is clean you can either perform
  a <b class="command">make clean</b> at the top of the tree, or use the
  following sequence of commands from the directory of the package you
  want to update (<span class="emphasis"><em>before</em></span> running
  <b class="command">make update</b> for the first time, otherwise you lose
  all the packages you wanted to update!):
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make clean-update</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make clean CLEANDEPENDS=YES</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make update</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  The following variables can be used either on the command line or in
  <tt class="filename">/etc/mk.conf</tt> to alter the behaviour of
  <b class="command">make clean-update</b>:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="circle"><li>
<tt class="varname">CLEAR_DIRLIST</tt><p>
  After <b class="command">make clean</b>, do not reconstruct the list of
  directories to update for this package.  Only use this if <b class="command">make
  update</b> successfully installed all packages you wanted to
  update.  Normally, this is done automatically on <b class="command">make
  update</b>, but may have been suppressed by the
<tt class="varname">NOCLEAN</tt> variable (see above).
</p>
</li></ul></div>
</li>
<li>
<p>info</p>
<p>
  This target invokes <b class="command">pkg_info</b> for the current
  package. You can use this to check which version of a package is
  installed.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>readme</p>
<p>
  This target generates a <tt class="filename">README.html</tt> file, which
  can be viewed using a browser such as <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/www/navigator/README.html" class="pkgname">www/navigator</a> or
  <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/www/lynx/README.html" class="pkgname">www/lynx</a>. The generated files contain references to any
  packages which are in the <tt class="varname">PACKAGES</tt> directory on
  the local host. The generated files can be made to refer to URLs based on
  <tt class="varname">FTP_PKG_URL_HOST</tt> and
  <tt class="varname">FTP_PKG_URL_DIR</tt>. For example, if I wanted to generate
  <tt class="filename">README.html</tt> files which pointed to binary packages
  on the local machine, in the directory
  <tt class="filename">/usr/packages</tt>, set
  <tt class="varname">FTP_PKG_URL_HOST=file://localhost</tt> and
  <tt class="varname">FTP_PKG_URL_DIR=/usr/packages</tt>. The
  <tt class="varname">${PACKAGES}</tt> directory and its subdirectories will be
  searched for all the binary packages.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>readme-all</p>
<p>
  Use this target to create a file <tt class="filename">README-all.html</tt>
  which contains a list of all packages currently available in the NetBSD
  Packages Collection, together with the category they belong to and a
  short description. This file is compiled from the
  <tt class="filename">pkgsrc/*/README.html</tt> files, so be sure to run
  this <span class="emphasis"><em>after</em></span> a <b class="command">make readme</b>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>cdrom-readme</p>
<p>
  This is very much the same as the &#8220;<span class="quote">readme</span>&#8221; target (see
  above), but is to be used when generating a pkgsrc tree to be written
  to a CD-ROM.  This target also produces
  <tt class="filename">README.html</tt> files, and can be made to refer
  to URLs based on <tt class="varname">CDROM_PKG_URL_HOST</tt> and
  <tt class="varname">CDROM_PKG_URL_DIR</tt>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>show-distfiles</p>
<p>
  This target shows which distfiles and patchfiles are needed to build
  the package. (<tt class="varname">DISTFILES</tt> and
  <tt class="varname">PATCHFILES</tt>, but not <tt class="filename">patches/*</tt>)
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>show-downlevel</p>
<p>
  This target shows nothing if the package is not installed. If a version
  of this package is installed, but is not the version provided in this
  version of pkgsrc, then a warning message is displayed. This target can
  be used to show which of your installed packages are downlevel, and so
  the old versions can be deleted, and the current ones added.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>show-pkgsrc-dir</p>
<p>
  This target shows the directory in the pkgsrc hierarchy from which the
  package can be built and installed. This may not be the same directory
  as the one from which the package was installed. This target is intended
  to be used by people who may wish to upgrade many packages on a single
  host, and can be invoked from the top-level pkgsrc Makefile by using the
  &#8220;<span class="quote">show-host-specific-pkgs</span>&#8221; target.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>show-installed-depends</p>
<p>
  This target shows which installed packages match the current package's
  <tt class="varname">DEPENDS</tt>. Useful if out of date DEPENDS are
  causing build problems.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>check-shlibs</p>
<p>
  After a package is installed, check all its binaries and (on ELF 
  platforms) shared libraries to see if they find the shared libs they need.
  Run by default if <tt class="varname">PKG_DEVELOPER</tt> is set in
  <tt class="filename">/etc/mk.conf</tt>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>print-PLIST</p>
<p>
  After a &#8220;<span class="quote">make install</span>&#8221; from a new or upgraded pkg, this
  prints out an attempt to generate a new <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt> from
  a <b class="command">find -newer work/.extract_done</b>.
  An attempt is made to care for shared libs etc., but it is
  <span class="emphasis"><em>strongly</em></span> recommended to review the result before
  putting it into <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt>. On upgrades, it's useful to
  diff the output of this command against an already existing
  <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt> file.
</p>
<p>
  If the package installs files via tar(1) or other methods that don't
  update file access times, be sure to add these files manually to your
  <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt>, as &#8220;<span class="quote">find -newer</span>&#8221; won't catch
  them!
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>bulk-package</p>
<p>
  Used to do bulk builds. If an appropriate binary package already exists,
  no action is taken. If not, this target will compile, install and
  package it (and it's depends, if <tt class="varname">PKG_DEPENDS</tt> is
  set properly. See <a href="#binary.configuration">Section 4.3.1, &#8220;Configuration&#8221;</a>.
  After creating the binary
  package, the sources, the just-installed package and it's required
  packages are removed, preserving free disk space. 
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>bulk-install</p>
<p>
   Used during bulk-installs to install required packages. If an
   appropriate binary package is available, it will be installed via
   pkg_add. If not, <b class="command">make bulk-package</b> will be executed,
   but the installed binary not be removed. A binary package is
   &#8220;<span class="quote">appropriate</span>&#8221; to be installed via <b class="command">pkg_add</b>
   if:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="circle">
<li>None of the package's files (<tt class="filename">Makefile</tt>,
      ...) were modified since it was built.</li>

<p>
buildlink2 is a pkgsrc framework that controls what headers and libraries
are seen by a package's configure and build processes.  This is implemented
in a two step process:
</p>
<div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1">
<li><p>
Symlink headers and libraries for dependencies into
<tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_DIR</tt>, which by default is a subdirectory
of <tt class="varname">WRKDIR</tt>.
</p></li>
<li><p>
Create wrapper scripts that are used in place of the normal compiler
tools that translate &#8220;<span class="quote">-I${LOCALBASE}/include</span>&#8221; and
&#8220;<span class="quote">-L${LOCALBASE}/lib</span>&#8221; into references to
<tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_DIR</tt>.
</p></li>
</ol></div>
<p>
This normalizes the environment in which a package is built so that the
package may be built consistently despite what may other software may
installed.  Please refer to
<tt class="filename">pkgsrc/mk/buildlink2/buildlink2.txt</tt> for some
FAQs and answers regarding buildlink2, and to
<tt class="filename">pkgsrc/mk/buildlink2/README</tt>

<div></div>
</div>
<p>
The process of converting packages to use the buildlink2 framework is
fairly straightforward.  The package <tt class="filename">Makefile</tt> must
define <tt class="varname">USE_BUILDLINK2</tt>.
If a dependency on a particular package, e.g.  foo, is required for its
libraries and headers, then we replace:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>DEPENDS+=	foo&gt;=1.1.0:../../category/foo</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
with
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>.include &quot;../../category/foo/buildlink2.mk&quot;</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
There are several buildlink2.mk files in <tt class="filename">pkgsrc/mk</tt>
that handle special package issues:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li><p>
   <tt class="filename">motif.buildlink2.mk</tt> checks for a system-provided
   Motif installation or adds a dependency on <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/x11/lesstif/README.html" class="pkgname">x11/lesstif</a> or
   <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/x11/openmotif/README.html" class="pkgname">x11/openmotif</a>;
</p></li>
<li><p>
   <tt class="filename">ossaudio.buildlink2.mk</tt> defines several variables
   that may be used by packages that use the Open Sound System (OSS) API;
</p></li>
<li><p>
   <tt class="filename">pthread.buildlink2.mk</tt> uses the value of
   <tt class="varname">PTHREAD_OPTS</tt> and checks for native pthreads or adds
   a dependency on <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/devel/pth/README.html" class="pkgname">devel/pth</a> as needed;

<div></div>
</div>
<p>
A simple example of a buildlink2.mk file for a mythical package foo
follows:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>BUILDLINK_PACKAGES+=          foo
BUILDLINK_PKGBASE.foo=        foo
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo?=       foo&gt;=1.0
BUILDLINK_PKGSRCDIR.foo?=     ../../category/foo

EVAL_PREFIX+=                 BUILDLINK_PREFIX.foo=foo
BUILDLINK_PREFIX.foo_DEFAULT= ${LOCALBASE}
BUILDLINK_FILES.foo=          include/foo.h
BUILDLINK_FILES.foo+=         include/bar.h
BUILDLINK_FILES.foo+=         lib/libfoo.*

BUILDLINK_TARGETS+=           foo-buildlink

foo-buildlink: _BUILDLINK_USE</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
The first section controls how the dependency on foo is added.  The
dependency is constructed from four parts:
</p>
<div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1">
<li><p>
  <tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_PACKAGES</tt> is the global list of packages
  for which dependencies will be added by buildlink2;
</p></li>
<li><p>
  <tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo</tt> is the actual dependency
  recorded in the installed package;
</p></li>
<li><p>
  <tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_PKGSRCDIR.foo</tt> is the location of the
  foo pkgsrc directory;
</p></li>
<li><p>
  <tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_DEPMETHOD.foo</tt> (not shown above) controls
  whether we use <tt class="varname">BUILD_DEPENDS</tt> or
  <tt class="varname">DEPENDS</tt> to add the foo dependency, where the
  full dependency is added if
  <tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_DEPMETHOD.foo</tt> contains &#8220;<span class="quote">full</span>&#8221;.
</p></li>
</ol></div>
<p>
The second section controls which files are linked into
<tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_DIR</tt>:
</p>
<div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1">
<li><p>
  <tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_PREFIX.foo</tt> is the installation prefix of
  the package which we derive by using <tt class="varname">EVAL_PREFIX</tt>;
</p></li>
<li><p>
  <tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_FILES.foo</tt> is a list of files (shell globs
  allowed) relative to the <tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_PREFIX.foo</tt>
  directory and will be symlinked into <tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_DIR</tt>;
</p></li>
<li><p>
  <tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_FILES_CMD.foo</tt> (not shown above) is a
  shell pipeline that outputs a list of files relative to the
  <tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_PREFIX.foo</tt> directory and will be symlinked
  into <tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_DIR</tt>.
</p></li>
</ol></div>
<p>
The remaining parts create the &#8220;<span class="quote">foo-buildlink</span>&#8221; target that
actually performs the symlinking and adds the
&#8220;<span class="quote">foo-buildlink</span>&#8221; target to
<tt class="varname">BUILDLINK_TARGETS</tt>, which is the global list of targets
to execute at do-buildlink time.

To check out all the gotchas when building a package, here are the steps
that I do in order to get a package working. Please note this is basically
the same as what was explained in the previous sections, only with some
debugging aids.
</p>

<p>
Make the package compile, doing multiple rounds of

shouldn't be, especially during the build phase.

Generate a <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt>:

<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make install</tt></b>

<p>
You usually need to be root to do this. Look if there are any files left:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make print-PLIST</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
If this reveals any files that are missing in
<tt class="filename">PLIST</tt>, add them.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Now that the <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt> is OK, install the package again
and make a binary package:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make reinstall &amp;&amp; make package</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Delete the installed package:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>pkg_delete blub</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Repeat the above find command, which shouldn't find anything now:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make print-PLIST</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Reinstall the binary package:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">#</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>pkgadd .../blub.tgz</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
</li>
<li><p>
Play with it. Make sure everything works.
</p></li>
<li>
<p>
Run <b class="command">pkglint</b> from <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/pkgtools/pkglint/README.html" class="pkgname">pkgtools/pkglint</a>, and fix the

<a name="id2955896"></a>11.6. How to fetch all distfiles at once</h2></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
You would like to download all the distfiles in a single batch from work or
university, where you can't run a <b class="command">make fetch</b>. There
is an archive of distfiles on <a href="ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/distfiles/" target="_top">ftp.NetBSD.org</a>,
but downloading the entire directory may not be appropriate.
</p>
<p>
The answer here is to do a <b class="command">make fetch-list</b> in
<tt class="filename">/usr/pkgsrc</tt>, carry the 
resulting list to your machine at work/school and use it there If you don't
have a NetBSD-compatible ftp(1) (like lukemftp) at work, don't forget to
set <tt class="varname">FETCH_CMD</tt> to something that fetches an URL:
</p>
<p>
At home:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>cd /usr/pkgsrc</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make fetch-list FETCH_CMD=wget DISTDIR=/tmp/distfiles &gt;/tmp/fetch.sh</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>scp /tmp/fetch.sh work:/tmp</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
At work:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>sh /tmp/fetch.sh</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
then tar up <tt class="filename">/tmp/distfiles</tt> and take it home.
</p>
<p>
If you have a machine running NetBSD, and you want to get
<span class="emphasis"><em>all</em></span> distfiles
(even ones that aren't for your machine architecture), you can do so by
using the above-mentioned <b class="command">make fetch-list</b> approach, or
fetch the distfiles directly by running:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make mirror-distfiles</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
If you even decide to ignore <tt class="varname">NO_{SRC,BIN}_ON_{FTP,CDROM}</tt>,
then you can get everything by running:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>make fetch NO_SKIP=yes</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>

</div>
<p>
If you are sitting behind a firewall which does not allow direct connections
to Internet hosts (i.e. non-NAT), you may specify the relevant proxy hosts.
This is done using an environment variable in the form of a URL
e.g. in Amdahl, the machine &#8220;<span class="quote">orpheus.amdahl.com</span>&#8221; is one of
the firewalls, and it uses port 80 as the proxy port number. So the proxy
environment variables are:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>ftp_proxy=ftp://orpheus.amdahl.com:80/

<a name="id2956116"></a>11.9. How to pull in variables from /etc/mk.conf</h2></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
The problem with package-defined variables that can be overridden via
<tt class="varname">MAKECONF</tt> or <tt class="filename">/etc/mk.conf</tt> is that make(1) expands a variable as it is
used, but evaluates preprocessor like statements (.if, .ifdef and
.ifndef) as they are read.  So, to use any variable (which may be set
in <tt class="filename">/etc/mk.conf</tt>) in one of the .if* statements, the file
<tt class="filename">/etc/mk.conf</tt>
must be included before that .if* statement.
</p>
<p>
Rather than have a number of ad-hoc ways of including
<tt class="filename">/etc/mk.conf</tt>,
should it exist, or <tt class="varname">MAKECONF</tt>, should it exist, include the
<tt class="filename">pkgsrc/mk/bsd.prefs.mk</tt> file in the package Makefile before any
preprocessor-like .if, .ifdef, or .ifndef statements:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>.include &quot;../../mk/bsd.prefs.mk&quot;

<a name="id2956204"></a>11.11. How do I tell <b class="command">make fetch</b> to do passive FTP?</h2></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
This depends on which utility is used to retrieve distfiles. From
<tt class="filename">bsd.pkg.mk</tt>, <tt class="varname">FETCH_CMD</tt> is assigned
the first available command from the following list:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>/usr/bin/fetch
${LOCALBASE}/bsd/bin/ftp
/usr/bin/ftp</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
On a default NetBSD install, this will be
<tt class="filename">/usr/bin/ftp</tt>, which automatically
tries passive connections first, and falls back to active connections if the
server refuses to do passive. For the other tools, add the following to your
<tt class="filename">/etc/mk.conf</tt> file:
<tt class="varname">PASSIVE_FETCH=1</tt>.
</p>
<p>
Having that option present will prevent
<tt class="filename">/usr/bin/ftp</tt> from falling back to
active transfers.

<a name="id2956350"></a>11.12. Dependencies on other packages</h2></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
Your package may depend on some other package being present - and there are
various ways of expressing this dependency. NetBSD supports the
<tt class="varname">BUILD_DEPENDS</tt> and <tt class="varname">DEPENDS</tt> definitions,
as well as dependencies via
<tt class="filename">buildlink2.mk</tt> (see <a href="#buildlink2" title="Chapter 9. buildlink2 methodology">Chapter 9, <i>buildlink2 methodology</i></a>).
</p>
<p>
The basic difference between the two definitions is as follows: The
<tt class="varname">DEPENDS</tt> definition registers that pre-requisite in the binary package,
whilst the <tt class="varname">BUILD_DEPENDS</tt> definition does not.
</p>
<p>
This means that if you only need a package present whilst you are building,
it should be noted as a <tt class="varname">BUILD_DEPENDS</tt>.
</p>
<p>
The format for a <tt class="varname">BUILD_DEPENDS</tt> and a
<tt class="varname">DEPENDS</tt> definition is:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>&lt;pre-req-package-name&gt;:../../&lt;category&gt;/&lt;pre-req-package&gt;</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
Please note that the &#8220;<span class="quote">pre-req-package-name</span>&#8221; may include any of the wildcard
version numbers recognised by pkg_info(1).
</p>
<div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1">
<li>
<p>
If your package needs to use another package to build itself, this
is specified using the <tt class="varname">BUILD_DEPENDS</tt> definition.
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>BUILD_DEPENDS+=  autoconf-2.13:../../devel/autoconf</pre></td></tr></table>
</li>
<li>
<p>
If your package needs a library with which to link, this is specified
using the <tt class="varname">DEPENDS</tt> definition.  An example of this is
the <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/print/lyx/README.html" class="pkgname">print/lyx</a>
package, which uses the xpm library, version 3.4j to build.
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>DEPENDS+=       xpm-3.4j:../../graphics/xpm</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
You can also use wildcards in package dependences:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>DEPENDS+=	xpm-[0-9]*:../../graphics/xpm</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
Note that such wildcard dependencies are retained when creating binary
packages.  The dependency is checked when installing the binary
package and any package which matches the pattern will be used. 
Wildcard dependencies should be used with care.
</p>
<p>
The -[0-9]* should be used instead of -* to avoid potentially
ambiguous matches such as tk-postgresql matching a tk-*
<tt class="varname">DEPENDS</tt>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
If your package needs some executable to be able to run correctly, this
is specified using the <tt class="varname">DEPENDS</tt> definition. The
<a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/print/lyx/README.html" class="pkgname">print/lyx</a> package needs
to be able to execute the latex binary from the teTeX package when it runs,
and that is specified:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>DEPENDS+=        teTeX-[0-9]*:../../print/teTeX</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
The comment about wildcard dependencies from previous paragraph
applies here, too.
</p>
</li>
</ol></div>
<p>
If your package needs files from another package to build, see the
first part of the &#8220;<span class="quote">do-configure</span>&#8221; target
<a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/print/ghostscript5/README.html" class="pkgname">print/ghostscript5</a> package
(it relies on the jpeg sources being present in source form during the
build):
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>if [ ! -e ${_PKGSRCDIR}/graphics/jpeg/${WRKDIR:T}/jpeg-6b ]; then \
	cd ${_PKGSRCDIR}/../../graphics/jpeg &amp;&amp; ${MAKE} extract;              \
fi</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
If you build any other packages that way, please make sure the working
files are deleted too when this package's working files are cleaned up.
The easiest way to do so is by adding a pre-clean target:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>pre-clean:
	cd ${_PKGSRCDIR}/../../graphics/jpeg &amp;&amp; ${MAKE} clean</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
Please also note the <tt class="varname">BUILD_USES_MSGFMT</tt> and

<p>
Your package may conflict with other packages a user might already have
installed on his system, e.g. if your package installs the same set of
files like another package in our pkgsrc tree.
</p>
<p>
In this case you can set <tt class="varname">CONFLICTS</tt> to a space separated

Packages will automatically conflict with other packages with the name prefix

<div></div>
</div>
<p>
Sometimes authors of a software package make some modifications after the
software was released, and they put up a new distfile without changing the
package's version number. If a package is already in pkgsrc at that time, 
the md5 checksum will no longer match. The correct way to work around this
is to update the package's md5 checksum to match the package on the master
site (beware, any mirrors may not be up to date yet!), and to remove the 
old distfile from ftp.NetBSD.org's
<tt class="filename">/pub/NetBSD/packages/distfiles</tt> directory.
Furthermore, a mail to the package's author seems appropriate making sure
the distfile was really updated on purpose, and that no trojan horse or so
crept in.

<div></div>
</div>
<p>
When making fixes to an existing package it can be useful to change
the version number in <tt class="varname">PKGNAME</tt>. To avoid conflicting with
future versions
by the original author, a &#8220;<span class="quote">nb1</span>&#8221;, &#8220;<span class="quote">nb2</span>&#8221;, ... suffix
can be used on package
versions by setting <tt class="varname">PKGREVISION=1</tt> (2,. ..). The
&#8220;<span class="quote">nb</span>&#8221; is treated like a &#8220;<span class="quote">.</span>&#8221; by the pkg tools. e.g.
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>DISTNAME=	foo-17.42

<p>
will result in a <tt class="varname">PKGNAME</tt> of &#8220;<span class="quote">foo-17.42nb9</span>&#8221;.
</p>
<p>
When a new release of the package is released, the
<tt class="varname">PKGREVISION</tt> should be
removed. e.g. on a new minor release of the above package, things should
be like:

Some licenses restrict how software may be re-distributed.  In order to
satisfy these restrictions, the package system defines five make variables
that can be set to note these restrictions:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li>
<p><tt class="varname">RESTRICTED</tt></p>

</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><tt class="varname">NO_BIN_ON_CDROM</tt></p>
<p>
   Binaries may not be placed on CD-ROM.  Set this variable to
   <tt class="varname">${RESTRICTED}</tt> whenever a binary package may not
   be included on a CD-ROM.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><tt class="varname">NO_BIN_ON_FTP</tt></p>
<p>
   Binaries may not be placed on an FTP server.  Set this
   variable to <tt class="varname">${RESTRICTED}</tt> whenever a binary package
   may not not be made available on the Internet.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><tt class="varname">NO_SRC_ON_CDROM</tt></p>
<p>
   Distfiles may not be placed on CD-ROM.  Set this variable to
   <tt class="varname">${RESTRICTED}</tt> if re-distribution of the source code
   or other distfile(s) is not allowed on CD-ROMs.
</p>
</li>
<li>

<p>
Please note that the use of <tt class="varname">NO_PACKAGE</tt>,

<p>
Please be aware that there can often be bugs in third-party software,
and some of these bugs can leave a machine vulnerable to exploitation
by attackers.  In an effort to lessen the exposure, the NetBSD
packages team maintains a database of known-exploits to packages which
have at one time been included in pkgsrc.  The database can be
downloaded automatically, and a security audit of all packages
installed on a system can take place.  To do this, install the
<a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/security/audit-packages/README.html" class="pkgname">security/audit-packages</a> package.  It has two components:
</p>
<div class="orderedlist"><ol type="1">
<li>
<p>
     &#8220;<span class="quote">download-vulnerability-list</span>&#8221;, an easy way to download a list of the
     security vulnerabilities information. This list is kept up to date by
     the NetBSD security officer and the NetBSD packages team, and is
     distributed from the NetBSD ftp server:
</p>
<p>
<a href="ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/distfiles/vulnerabilities" target="_top">ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/distfiles/vulnerabilities</a>
</p>
</li>
<li><p>
     &#8220;<span class="quote">audit-packages</span>&#8221;, an easy way to audit the current machine, checking
     each vulnerability which is known. If a vulnerable package is
     installed, it will be shown by output to stdout, including a
     description of the type of vulnerability, and a URL containing more
     information.
</p></li>
</ol></div>
<p>
Use of the audit-packages package is strongly recommended.
</p>
<p>
The following message is displayed as part of the audit-packages
installation procedure:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>
======================================================================
You may wish to have the vulnerabilities file downloaded daily so that
it remains current.  This may be done by adding an appropriate entry
to the root users crontab(5) entry.  For example the entry
	
# download vulnerabilities file
0 3 * * * ${PREFIX}/sbin/download-vulnerability-list &gt;/dev/null 2&gt;&amp;1
	
will update the vulnerability list every day at 3AM.
	
In addition, you may wish to run the package audit from the daily
security script.  This may be accomplished by adding the following
lines to /etc/security.local
	
if [ -x ${PREFIX}/sbin/audit-packages ]; then
	${PREFIX}/sbin/audit-packages

<p>
Note to package developers: When a vulnerability is found, this should be

<div></div>
</div>
<p>
There are two make variables used to control the creation of package-specific
groups and users at pre-install time.  The first is
<tt class="varname">PKG_GROUPS</tt>, which is a
list of group[:groupid] elements, where the groupid is optional.  The second
is <tt class="varname">PKG_USERS</tt>, which is a list of elements of the form:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>user:group[:[userid][:[description][:[home][:shell]]]]</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
where only the user and group are required, the rest being optional.  A
simple example is:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>PKG_GROUPS=	foogroup
PKG_USERS=	foouser:foogroup</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
A more complex example is that creates two groups and two users is:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>PKG_GROUPS=	group1 group2:1005
PKG_USERS=	first:group1::First\\ User			\
		second:group2::Second\\ User:/home/second:${SH}</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
By default, a new user will have home directory
<tt class="filename">/nonexistent</tt>, and login shell
<tt class="filename">/sbin/nologin</tt> unless they are specified as part of
the user element.
</p>
<p>
The package Makefile must also include
<tt class="filename">../../mk/bsd.pkg.install.mk</tt> prior to
the inclusion of <tt class="filename">bsd.pkg.mk</tt>.  This will cause the users and groups to be
created at pre-install time, and the admin will be prompted to remove them at
post-deinstall time.  Automatic creation of the users and groups can be
toggled on and off by setting the environment variable
<tt class="varname">PKG_CREATE_USERGROUP</tt> prior to package installation.

Typically a workaround involves testing the <tt class="varname">MACHINE_ARCH</tt>

Some packages install info files or use the &#8220;<span class="quote">makeinfo</span>&#8221;
or &#8220;<span class="quote">install-info</span>&#8221; commands. Each info file:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">

<li>is registered in the Info directory file
          <tt class="filename">${PREFIX}/${INFO_DIR}/dir</tt>,</li>
<li>and must be listed as a filename in the
          <tt class="varname">INFO_FILES</tt> variable in the package
          Makefile.</li>
</ul></div>
<p>
</p>
<p>
<tt class="varname">INFO_DIR</tt> defaults to &#8220;<span class="quote">info</span>&#8221; and can be
overridden in the package Makefile. <tt class="filename">INSTALL</tt> and
<tt class="filename">DEINSTALL</tt> scripts will be generated for handling
registration of the info files in the Info directory file. The command
&#8220;<span class="quote">install-info</span>&#8221; used for the info files registration is
either provided by the system, or by a special purpose package
automatically added as dependency if needed.
</p>
<p>
A package which need the &#8220;<span class="quote">makeinfo</span>&#8221; command at build
time must define the variable <tt class="varname">USE_MAKEINFO</tt> in its
Makefile. If a minimum version of the &#8220;<span class="quote">makeinfo</span>&#8221; command
is needed it should be noted with the <tt class="varname">TEXINFO_REQD</tt>
variable in the package Makefile. By default, a minimum version of 3.12
is required. If the system does not provide a &#8220;<span class="quote">makeinfo</span>&#8221;
command or if it does not match the required minimum, a build dependency
on the <a xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc/devel/gtexinfo/README.html" class="pkgname">devel/gtexinfo</a> package is added automatically.
</p>
<p>
The installation process of the software provided by the package must not
use &#8220;<span class="quote">install-info</span>&#8221;, as the registration of info files
is the task of the package INSTALL sript, and it must use
the right &#8220;<span class="quote">makeinfo</span>&#8221;.
</p>
<p>
If the package use buildlink2 framework no special action should be needed
to achieve this goal.
</p>
<p>
If the package does not use the buildlink2 framework patch files are likely
to be needed so the build and installation process of the software
picks up the <span class="emphasis"><em>possibly dummy</em></span> values of
<tt class="varname">INSTALL_INFO</tt> and <tt class="varname">MAKEINFO</tt>
variables.

Temporarily, the variable <tt class="varname">USE_NEW_TEXINFO</tt> must be

&#8220;<span class="quote">install-info</span>&#8221; and &#8220;<span class="quote">makeinfo</span>&#8221;
were handled somewhat differently and the two ways will coexist for

</p></li>
<li><p>
    <tt class="varname">PKG_SYSCONFSUBDIR</tt> is the subdirectory of
    <tt class="varname">PKG_SYSCONFBASE</tt> under which
    the configuration files for a particular package may be found. Defaults
    to <tt class="varname">${SYSCONFBASE}</tt>.
</p></li>
<li><p>
    <tt class="varname">PKG_SYSCONFVAR</tt> is the special suffix used to
    distinguish any overriding values for a particular package
    (see next item). It defaults to <tt class="varname">${PKGBASE}</tt>, but
    for a collection of related packages that should all have the same
    <tt class="varname">PKG_SYSCONFDIR</tt> value, it can be set in each of
    the package Makefiles to a common value.
</p></li>
<li>
<p>
    <tt class="varname">PKG_SYSCONFDIR.${PKG_SYSCONFVAR}</tt> overrides the value of
    <tt class="varname">${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}</tt> for packages with the same value
    for <tt class="varname">PKG_SYSCONFVAR</tt>.
</p>
<p>
    As an example, all the various KDE packages may want to set
    <tt class="varname">PKG_SYSCONFVAR</tt> to &#8220;<span class="quote">kde</span>&#8221; so admins can
    set <tt class="varname">PKG_SYSCONFDIR.kde</tt> in
    <tt class="filename">/etc/mk.conf</tt> to define where to install KDE
    config files.
</p>
</li>
</ol></div>
<p>
Programs' configuration directory should be defined during the configure
stage. Packages that use GNU autoconf can usually do this by using the
&#8220;<span class="quote">--sysconfdir</span>&#8221; parameter, but this brings some problems as
we will see now.
When you change this pathname in packages, you should not allow them to
install files in that directory directly. Instead they need to install
those files under <tt class="filename">share/examples/${PKGNAME}</tt> so
<tt class="filename">PLIST</tt> can register them.
</p>
<p>
Once you have the required configuration files in place (under the
<tt class="filename">share/examples</tt> directory) the variable
<tt class="varname">CONF_FILES</tt> should be set to copy
them into <tt class="varname">PKG_SYSCONFDIR</tt>. The contents of this variable
is formed by pairs
of filenames; the first element of the pair specifies the file inside the
examples directory (registered by <tt class="filename">PLIST</tt>) and the
second element specifies
the target file. This is done this way to allow binary packages to place
files in the right directory using
<tt class="filename">INSTALL</tt>/<tt class="filename">DEINSTALL</tt> scripts which are
created automatically.  The package <tt class="filename">Makefile</tt> must also
include <tt class="filename">../../mk/bsd.pkg.install.mk</tt> prior to the
inclusion of <tt class="filename">bsd.pkg.mk</tt> to use
these automatically generated scripts.  The automatic copying of config
files can be toggled by setting the environment variable
<tt class="varname">PKG_CONFIG</tt> prior to package installation.
</p>
<p>
Here is an example, taken from mail/mutt/Makefile:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre>EGDIR=		${PREFIX}/share/doc/mutt/samples
CONF_FILES=	${EGDIR}/Muttrc ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}/Muttrc</pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
As you can see, this package installs configuration files inside
<tt class="varname">EGDIR</tt>, which are registered by
<tt class="filename">PLIST</tt>. After that, the variable
<tt class="varname">CONF_FILES</tt> lists
the installed file first and then the target file. Users will also get an
automatic message when files are installed using this method.

<p>
If the purpose of the package is to provide a login shell, the variable
<tt class="varname">PKG_SHELL</tt> should contain the full pathname of the
shell executable installed by this package. The package
<tt class="filename">Makefile</tt> also must include

<p>
The shell is registered into <tt class="filename">/etc/shells</tt> file automatically in the

When installing packages as non-root user and using the just-in-time

package can be used, which does password caching over a limited time.
To use it, install sudo (either as binary package or from

There are several reasons why a package might be instructed to not

a small handful of platforms, set <tt class="varname">ONLY_FOR_PLATFORM</tt>

the package should fail because some preconditions are not met,
set <tt class="varname">PKG_FAIL_REASON</tt> to a descriptive message.
</p>
<p>
<tt class="varname">IGNORE</tt> is deprecated because it didn't provide enough
information to determine whether the build should fail.

You have to separate between binary and &#8220;<span class="quote">normal</span>&#8221; (source)
packages here:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li>
<p>precompiled binary packages</p>
<p>
  Our policy is that we accept binaries only from NetBSD developers to
  guarantee that the packages don't contain any trojan horses etc. 
  This is not to piss anyone off but rather to protect our users!
  You're still free to put up your home-made binary packages and tell
  the world where to get them. 
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>packages</p>
<p>
  First, check that your package is complete, compiles and runs well;
  see <a href="#debug" title="Chapter 10. Debugging">Chapter 10, <i>Debugging</i></a> and the rest of this document. Next,
  generate a gzipped
  tar-file of all the files needed for the package, preferably with all
  files in a single directory. Place this tar-file to a place where the
  package maintainers can fetch it using FTP or HTTP (WWW). Finally,
  <b class="command">send-pr</b> with category &#8220;<span class="quote">pkg</span>&#8221;, a
  synopsis which includes the package name and version number, a short
  description of your package (contents of the <tt class="varname">COMMENT</tt>
  variable are OK) and the URL of your tar-file.
</p>
<p>
  You will be notified if your PR has been addressed so you can remove
  the tar-file.

<p>
  If you want to submit several packages, please send a separate PR for

<a name="id2961824"></a>12.2. Committing: Importing a package into CVS</h2></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
  This section is only of interest for NetBSD developers with write
  access to the NetBSD pkgsrc repository. Please remember that cvs
  imports files relative to the cwd, and that the pathname that you
  give the <b class="command">cvs import</b> command is so that it knows where
  to place the files in the repository.  Newly created packages should be
  imported with a vendor tag of &#8220;<span class="quote">TNF</span>&#8221; and a release tag of
  &#8220;<span class="quote">pkgsrc-base</span>&#8221;, e.g:
</p>
<table xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="programlisting"><tr><td><pre><tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>cd
.../pkgsrc/&lt;category&gt;/&lt;pkgname&gt;</tt></b>
<tt class="prompt">%</tt> <b class="userinput"><tt>cvs import pkgsrc/&lt;category&gt;/&lt;pkgname&gt; TNF pkgsrc-base</tt></b></pre></td></tr></table>
<p>
  Remember to move the directory from which you imported out of
  the way, or cvs will complain the next time you &#8220;<span class="quote">cvs
  update</span>&#8221; your source tree.  Also don't forget to add the new
  package to the category's <tt class="filename">Makefile</tt>.
</p>
<p>
  The commit message of the initial import should include part of the
  <tt class="filename">DESCR</tt> file, so people reading the mailing lists know
  what the package is/does.
</p>
<p>
  Please note all package updates/additions in
  <tt class="filename">pkgsrc/doc/CHANGES</tt>. It's very
  important to keep this file up to date and conforming to the existing
  format, because it will be used by scripts to automatically update pages on
  <a href="http://www.NetBSD.org/" target="_top">www.NetBSD.org</a> and other sites.
</p>
<p>
  For new packages, &#8220;<span class="quote">cvs import</span>&#8221; is preferred to &#8220;<span class="quote">cvs
  add</span>&#8221; because the former gets everything with a single command,
  and provides a consistent tag.

<a name="id2962087"></a>12.3. Updating a Package to a Newer Version</h2></div></div>
<div></div>
</div>
<p>
  Please always put a concise, appropriate and relevant summary of the
  changes between old and new versions into the commit log when updating
  a package. There are various reasons for this:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li><p>
  A URL is volatile, and can change over time. It may go away completely 
  or its information may be overwritten by newer information.
</p></li>
<li><p>
  Having the change information between old and new versions in our CVS
  repository is very useful for people who use either cvs or anoncvs.
</p></li>
<li><p>
  Having the change information between old and new versions in our CVS
  repository is very useful for people who read the pkgsrc-changes mailing
  list, so that they can make tactical decisions about when to upgrade
  the package.
</p></li>
</ul></div>
<p>
  Please also recognise that, just because a new version of a package
  has been released, it should not automatically be upgraded in the CVS
  repository.  We prefer to be conservative in the packages that are
  included in pkgsrc - development or beta packages are not really the
  best thing for most places in which pkgsrc is used. Please use your
  judgement about what should go into pkgsrc, and bear in mind that
  stability is to be preferred above new and possibly untested features.
