about them.. :-) The patches/* won't work, it needs to be patches/patch-*
to avoid catching things like CVS files when working with a checked-out
copy of ports! Whoops!
1. Make build rely on a BUILD_COOKIE now. I'm tired of builds
being redone gratuitously while I'm trying to debug a tree build
problem.
2. Remove all the literal `touch -f' commands and indirect them through
variables. This lets you "leave tracks" in different ways, depending
on the medium. Just part 1 of my planned changes to make builds
directly off the CD work.
cc/Makefile.inc use (abuse?) LDDESTDIR for their internal libraries
so "?=" hides non-default external libraries. Adding multiple paths
to LDDESTDIR works except it makes it even harder than usual to
decide which libraries will actually be linked against.
is an interactive port, and requires user input somewhere along
the way (either fetching, configuring, building or installing).
If the user then sets BATCH in their environment, this port will be
skipped. If the user sets INTERACTIVE, then ONLY those ports marked
interactive are run (allowing one to do all ports in two passes).
If the user sets both BATCH and INTERACTIVE, then a metal claw extends
from the CRT and brutally yanks their nose off.
install cookie work any other way (perhaps I'm just being stupid).
In any case, INSTALL_COOKIE now works as advertised, and prevents duplicate
installations. pre-install users will have to keep their own cookies if
they wish to avoid duplicate installations, or tell me how to make the
rules run properly.
2. Update the list of library names and variables.
3. Update to reflect forth coming bsd.inc.mk file.
4. Update which .mk files include other .mk files.

1. Make DEPENDS fully qualified, and not implictly assume relative
to ${PORTSDIR}. This allows more arbitrary dependencies to be
specified. This also means that DEPENDS= x11/foo needs to be changed
to DEPENDS= ${PORTSDIR}/x11/foo in any Makefiles. I'll try to do
these changes myself.
2. Add an option NO_DEPENDS to disable the automagic building of depended
ports.

Make DEPENDS now does a `make is_depended' in the target port.
This defaults to `all install' globally, but can be overriden locally
by a port if it wants to do different things when other ports depend on it.
the light. `env' can be used to pass environment variables to shell
scripts this way, which means that all *configure/post-build scripts
_no longer take any arguments_; everything they should need (and more)
is now available in the environment. I'm working now to adapt the older
shell scripts over, but if you want beat me to it on some of your own
ports, don't let me stop you! :)

if requested. LKMs which need it should use:
SRCS+= vnode_if.h
CLEANFILES+= vnode_if.h vnode_if.c
These rules were already present for VFS LKMs; now they are enabled all
the time. (VFS LKMs do not need the fragment above; it is still done for them.)
to a reasonable compromise:
MASTER_SITES now contains a space seperated list of sites for which each
DISTFILE may be retrieved. This should be a directory spec, which will be
concatenated with each file in DISTFILES. HOME_LOCATION is *gone* now
and isn't used for anything, so you can delete it from your Makefiles.
If you want to force a fetch from a given location, simply do something like:
MASTER_SITES= ftp://fnord.foo.bar/pub/dist
DISTFILES= a.tar.gz b.tar.gz
Your entry in MASTER_SITES will be tried first to fetch a.tar.gz and
b.tar.gz, followed by any master sites we have set up (right now, only
freebsd.cdrom.com).
