Paris, 17 July 1998
Bulletin C 16
To authorities responsible for
the measurement and distribution
of time
UTC TIME STEP
on the 1st of January 1999
A positive leap second will be introduced at the end of December 1998.
The sequence of dates of the UTC second markers will be:
1998 December 31, 23h 59m 59s
1998 December 31, 23h 59m 60s
1999 January 1, 0h 0m 0s
The difference between UTC and the International Atomic Time TAI is:
from 1997 July 1, 0h UTC, to 1999 January 1, 0h UTC : UTC-TAI = - 31s
from 1999 January 1, 0h UTC, until further notice : UTC-TAI = - 32s
Leap seconds can be introduced in UTC at the end of the months of
December or June, depending on the evolution of UT1-TAI. Bulletin C mailed
every six months, either to announce a time step in UTC, or to confirm that
there will be no time step at the next possible date.

since ports are not supposed to be broken during the process of
conversion to ELF -- please proceed with caution.)
(2) Support for checking file size before fetching. The essential
parts are commented out for now, so I won't lose the submission
while we discuss how to do it.
Submitted by: se (mostly)
(3) Don't run "fetch" twice. It was due to the change in checksum
target chaining. It used to be fetch -> checksum -> extract,
after 1.285 it was fetch -> checksum and checksum was also
explicitly called from extract. Fix it by not calling fetch from
checksum when it's invoked by extract.
Noticed by: pre-fetch target of lesstif being run twice
(4) Don't try to remove non-existent distfiles and patchfiles in
distclean.

(2) Check for exact version of perl5 in /usr/bin and exit with error
message if USE_PERL5 is defined and version does not match
${PERL_VERSION}.
(3) Note LIB_DEPENDS should not have any regular expressions. Remove
those in USE_XLIB and USE_QT.

(2) ELF support.
2a. Variable PORTOBJFORMAT specifies the object format of the system.
It is passed down to configure/make via CONFIGURE_ENV/MAKE_ENV,
and is given to generate-plist via PLIST_SUB.
2b. In PLIST, substitute lines that end with "/libFOO.so.X" with
"/libFOO.so.X.0". (This means PLISTs should only list ELF
libraries.)
Reviewed by: jb, jdp, hoek, jseger, steve
(3) Perl5-in-system support. Basically turns USE_PERL5 into a no-op
if there exists a "/usr/bin/perl5". Also fix prior breakage by
dima (${PREFIX} => ${LOCALBASE} in perl5 path).
Reviewed by: markm (sort of)
(4) Install requirement file as "+REQUIRE" so it will be executed
correctly by pkg_delete.

(5) Do not disable checksum and makesum when NO_EXTRACT is set.
Pointed out by: hoek and kiri, among other people
src/lkm/Makefile.inc. This fixes broken builds of the syscons LKMs
when OBJFORMAT=elf. Removed src/lkm/Makefile.inc since it became
empty and is worse than useless.
the way, most of the things below are "Reviewed by: hoek" as well.)
The changes are (roughly in order of appearance):
(1) Revamp comments at beginning of file. Major rewrites. Reorder
them into more relevant sections. Make clear which ones are user
variables and not to be set in ports' Makefiles.
Reviewed by: hoek (well, he's the only one who sent any comments)
(2) Include ${.CURDIR}/Makefile.local if it exists. This is a local
configuration file (ala rc.conf.local and make.conf.local) so
please do not commit a file with this name to the repository.
Suggested by: dillon
(3) MANCOMPRESSED now takes three possible values: "yes", "no" and
"maybe". (It used to be a binary variable -- the old behavior is
now accomplished by "MANCOMPRESSED=yes". Ports that defined this
variable to other values have been corrected.)
"yes" means the manpages are installed compressed, "no" means they
are not, and "maybe" means the port already respects the value of
NOMANCOMPRESS. The default is "yes" for USE_IMAKE ports without
NO_INSTALL_MANPAGES, and "no" otherwise.
Add "compress-man" target and move manpage {,de}compression there.
Reviewed by: hoek etc. and a full build of the ports tree
(4) Add LIBDIR="${LIBDIR}" to MAKE_ENV. Makes easier to "fix" ports
for /usr/lib/aout mess.
Submitted by: ohashi@mickey.ai.kyutech.ac.jp (Takeshi Ohashi)
(5) Change ${TMPPLIST} from ${WRKDIR}/PLIST.mktmp to
${WRKDIR}/.PLIST.mktmp.
Suggested by: hoek
Strongly seconded by: steve
(6) Change a couple more relative pathnames to absolute ones.
Submitted by: hoek
(7) Move checksum into real-extract.
(8) Change way rules are chained. Instead of:
build: configure ${BUILD_COOKIE}
${BUILD_COOKIE}:
@cd ${.CURDIR} && ${MAKE} ${.MAKEFLAGS} real-build
we now have
build: ${BUILD_COOKIE}
${BUILD_COOKIE}:
@cd ${.CURDIR} && ${MAKE} ${.MAKEFLAGS} configure
@cd ${.CURDIR} && ${MAKE} ${.MAKEFLAGS} real-build
Other than being more PC (pmake clean), this really speeds up
skipping ports already built. For instance, "make package" on a
fully packaged games subtree used to take 269 seconds on average,
now it's 45 seconds on average.
The flip side of this is that it will create more processes when
the targets actually chain, but when you're actually compiling
things, your make is creating half a bazzilion processes anyway so
I don't think it matters.
(9) ${TMPPLIST} is now a real dependency. Create "generate-plist"
target to generate ${TMPPLIST}. Make sure it's called when needed
(usually between do-install and post-install), and that the
required files exist.
(10) Change some messages so we can tell where "make index" failed.
(11) Check if LIB_DEPENDS really generated the required shared lib or
not.

the diff is attached below. This is done on the 3.0 source-tree.
I have test this on 2.2-stable before, but I don't have a 3.0 machine
right now.
This patch is mainly to make libc support BIG5 encoding, thus add
zh_TW.BIG5 locale to 3.0.
Submitted by: Chen Hsiung Chan <frankch@waru.life.nthu.edu.tw>
I hope some other people might find them useful. They are for
zh_CN.EUC (GB) only. I'm not familiar with the BIG5 encoding,
so I could only hope someone else would fill the gap.

when certain .mk files include other .mk files. This will remove the
need for multiple include protection in some other makefiles around the
tree (and helps some elf conditionals).
means (change PREFIX to ${X11BASE}) and add a new variable USE_X11
which means "this port requires the X window system (actually the
library)". USE_X_PREFIX implies USE_X11. USE_X11 adds a
LIB_DEPENDS to libX11 with the x11/XFree86 port.

(2) Remove NO_CONFIGURE and NO_PATCH, which never meant anything.

(3) Add new variable OSREL, which is automatically set to the
numeric OS version (e.g., 2.2.1, 3.0). It can be used to refer to
files in gcc installations, for instance.
(4) Finally remove EXEC_DEPENDS hack after all these years.
Submitted by: hoek
(5) Put quotes around some echo ${*_DEPENDS} statements so they won't
blow up when the variables include regular expressions like
"qt\\.1\\.\\\(33\\\|40\\\):${PORTSDIR}/x11/qt140".
recently added definitions from sys.mk to bsd.own.mk. Include the
src-relative bsd.own.mk in src/Makefile to pick up all new definitions.
Don't check that MACHINE_ARCH is defined in src/Makefile, since it is
(and should have been) guaranteed to be defined.
