I'm working on a local port where the source archive is not available
via anything other than svn. I'm trying to use pre-fetch to see if a
checkout of the release I want already exists in /usr/ports/distfiles
and if not, check it out. I'm trying something like this:
V = 1.2.3 # program version
R = 4321 # svn ID
DISTNAME = something-${V}-svn${R}
pre-fetch:
.if !exists(${DISTDIR}/${DISTNAME}.tar.gz)
rm -rf ${WRKDIR}/svn
mkdir -p ${WRKDIR}/svn
( cd ${WRKDIR}/svn ; ${FILESDIR}/checkout.sh ${V} ${R} )
cp ${WRKDIR}/svn/${DISTNAME}.tar.gz ${DISTDIR}
.endif
The block inside the .if/.endif works fine. 'checkout.sh' is something
I wrote to handle checking out the source for the specified version and
svn ID. The problem I'm hitting is that !exists() is not working as I
think it should.
exists() ignores ${DISTDIR} entirely. It works fine if I do:
.if !exists(/usr/ports/distfiles/${DISTNAME}.tar.gz)
If I turn on debugging on make(1), I see that exists() searches the
current directory, /usr/share/mk, and /etc for ${DISTNAME}.tar.gz.
The man page lacks an example usage and nothing I see in
/usr/ports/infrastructure/mk looks to be doing anything different from
what I'm trying to do. There are absolute path checks in there too.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
