System: FreeBSD fire.js.berklix.net 8.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE #0: Mon Jul
12 00:59:43 CEST 2010
[email protected]:/usr1/src/sys/amd64/compile/FIRE64.small amd64
>Description:
Using a base of 8.0-RELEASE &
cd /pri/FreeBSD/branches/-current/ports
setenv PORTSDIR `/bin/pwd`
cd sysutils/tarsnap
make fetch
Mk/ has regressed in current & now fails to fetch URLS of type
file:///usr/bla/
/usr/bla/
with error:
/usr/home/jhs/tmp/tarsnap-autoconf-1.0.27.tgz: Unsupported scheme.
file:///host/gate/usr/home/jhs/tmp/tarsnap-autoconf-1.0.27.tgz: \
Unsupported scheme.
>From make.conf fragment:
DIS_LOCAL+= /usr/home/jhs/tmp/distfiles/
DIS_LOCAL+= file:///usr/home/jhs/tmp/distfiles/
MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE= ${DIS_LOCAL}
make fetch used to call src/ BSD licensed fetch
it now calls FSF GNU licensed wget,
You can see why it fails with
cd sysutils/tarsnap ; make fetch-list
Even after one has found where
Unsupported scheme
comes from & tried to work round it with make.conf assertion of
FETCH_BINARY=/usr/bin/fetch
as shown in bsd.port.mk
/usr/src/usr.bin/fetch is still not used.
>How-To-Repeat:
See above
>Fix:
Revert Mk invocation back to longer invoke FSF/GNU licensed
wget & instead again invoke BSD licensed src/ provided fetch,
until such time as wget might be capable of offering all
schemes BSD fetch already does.
