ppkkgglliinntt -- a verifier for pkgsrc directories
SSYYNNOOPPSSIISS
ppkkgglliinntt [--ooppttiioonnss] [_d_i_r _._._.]
DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
ppkkgglliinntt attempts to detect features of the named pkgsrc packages that are
likely to be bugs, or that are simply deprecated. The pkgsrc system is
changing rapidly towards even more portability. The job of ppkkgglliinntt is to
define the rules that make up ``good'' packages and to allow automatic
conformance tests. Packages following these rules are assumed to make
future changes to the pkgsrc infrastructure easier.
OOppttiioonnss
--CC{{[[nnoo--]]cchheecckk,,......}} Enable or disable specific checks. For a list
of checks, see below.
--FF|----aauuttooffiixx Repair trivial things automatically. Currently
this only works for the synchronization of cat-
egory _M_a_k_e_f_i_l_es.
--II Show the _M_a_k_e_f_i_l_e that is constructed by
including all the files that are slurped in via
`.include' directives. This flag is mainly for
debugging.
--RR|----rrccssiiddssttrriinngg Allow other RCS Id strings than NetBSD. Multi-
ple strings may be concatenated with `|'.
--VV|----vveerrssiioonn Print the current ppkkgglliinntt version number and
exit.
--WW{{[[nnoo--]]wwaarrnn,,......}} Enable or disable specific warnings. For a
list of warnings, see below.
--ee|----eexxppllaaiinn Print further explanations for diagnostics.
Sometimes the reasons for diagnostics are not
obvious and need further explanation.
--gg|----ggcccc--oouuttppuutt--ffoorrmmaatt
Use a format for the diagnostics that is under-
stood by most programs, especially editors, so
they can provide a point-and-goto interface.
--hh|----hheellpp Show the summary of command line options, then
exit.
--ii|----iimmppoorrtt Check if a package is ready to be imported into
pkgsrc. This is especially useful for packages
from the pkgsrc-wip project.
--qq|----qquuiieett Don't print the errors and warnings summary
before terminating.
--rr Check subdirectories, too. The subdirectories
are those that are mentioned in a `SUBDIR+='
line.
--ss|----ssoouurrccee For all diagnostics having file and line number
information, show the source code along with
the diagnostics.
--vv|----vveerrbboossee Be verbose. Show the progress report for items
that are being checked. If given more than
once, debugging messages are also shown.
CChheecckkss
aallll Enable all checks.
nnoonnee Disable all checks.
[[nnoo--]]AALLTTEERRNNAATTIIVVEESS Check the alternatives file.
[[nnoo--]]IINNSSTTAALLLL Check the INSTALL and DEINSTALL scripts.
[[nnoo--]]MMaakkeeffiillee Check the package Makefile, including all
included files.
[[nnoo--]]MMEESSSSAAGGEE Check MESSAGE files.
[[nnoo--]]PPLLIISSTT Check PLIST files.
[[nnoo--]]bbll33 Check buildlink3 Makefiles.
[[nnoo--]]ddiissttiinnffoo Check the distinfo file.
[[nnoo--]]eexxttrraa Check remaining files in the package directory.
[[nnoo--]]mmkk Check Makefile fragments besides buildlink3.
[[nnoo--]]ppaattcchheess Check the pkgsrc specific patch files.
WWaarrnniinnggss
aallll Enable all warnings.
nnoonnee Disable all warnings.
[[nnoo--]]aabbssnnaammee Warn if a file contains an absolute pathname.
[[nnoo--]]ddeebbuugg Enable some warnings that are only useful for
debugging pkglint itself.
[[nnoo--]]ddiirreeccttccmmdd Warn if a system command name is used instead
of a variable (e.g. sed instead of ${SED}).
[[nnoo--]]eexxttrraa Emit some additional warnings that are not
enabled by default, for whatever reason.
[[nnoo--]]oorrddeerr Warn if Makefile variables are not in the pre-
ferred order.
[[nnoo--]]pplliisstt--ssoorrtt Warn if items of a PLIST file are not sorted
alphabetically. This warning is disabled by
default.
[[nnoo--]]qquuoottiinngg Warn for possibly invalid quoting of make vari-
ables in shell programs and shell variables
themselves.
[[nnoo--]]ssppaaccee Emit notes for inconsistent use of white-space.
[[nnoo--]]ttyyppeess Warn for some Makefile variables if their
assigned values do not match their type.
OOtthheerr aarrgguummeennttss
_d_i_r _._._. The pkgsrc directories to be checked. If omit-
ted, the current directory is checked.
FFIILLEESS
pkgsrc/mk/* Files from the pkgsrc infrastructure.
EEXXAAMMPPLLEESS
ppkkgglliinntt --CCnnoonnee,,ppaattcchheess ..
Checks the patches of the package in the current directory.
ppkkgglliinntt --WWaallll //uussrr//ppkkggssrrcc//ddeevveell
Checks the category Makefile and reports any warnings it can
find.
ppkkgglliinntt --rr --RR ''NNeettBBSSDD||IIdd'' //uussrr//ppkkggssrrcc
Check the whole pkgsrc tree while allowing `NetBSD' or `Id'
as the RCS Id.
DDIIAAGGNNOOSSTTIICCSS
Diagnostics are written to the standard output.
ERROR: ... Errors should be fixed before a package is committed to
pkgsrc.
WARN: ... Warnings generally should be fixed, but they are not as
critical as errors.
OK: ... Informational messages are only written in verbose mode
(--vv). Their main use is to aid debugging.

Many more checks could be added.
