I'm working on an upgrade to a port. It installs a bunch of files,
some in the standard places, a lot in /usr/local/portname. It also
installs a perl module in SITE_PERL.
The problem I have is I can't get that perl module to uninstall. If I
list it as %%SITE_PERL%%/mach/perl module, it prepends PREFIX to it and
can't find it. If I list it in PLIST_FILES instead, it still can't
find it.
How can I put an entry in PLIST that doesn't install in PREFIX/foo?
This has been broken for some time: files under SITE_PERL aren't handled
properly when a different PREFIX is used.
We now appear to have SITE_PERL_REL though, so files should be installed
to ${PREFIX}/${SITE_PERL_REL}.
I just tried this. It doesn't ignore PREFIX either. I need SITE_PERL to
be a hard-coded path that ignores PREFIX in pkg-plist. I guess I'll have
to write a pkg-deinstall script that removes the module. IOW, when a path
in pkg-plist is prepende with %%SITE_PERL%%, pkg-plist needs to *not*
prepend %%PREFIX%% to that but recognize that %%SITE_PERL%% is a reference
to /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/version//
