Hi, I'm running 5.1-stable/amd64. I'd like to install graphics/dvdrip. This depends on (among other things) x11/p5-Gtk2-Ex-FormFactory. There's a package for this, but 'pkg_add -vv p5-Gtk2-Ex-FormFactory-0.65p0.tgz' fails because it can't find a x11/p5-Gtk2 package:
# setenv PKG_PATH .:http://mirrors.nycbug.org/pub/OpenBSD/5.1/packages/amd64/ # pkg_add -vv p5-Gtk2-Ex-FormFactory-0.65p0.tgz [[...]] Can't find p5-Gtk2-1.221p5 Direct dependencies for p5-Gtk2-Ex-FormFactory-0.65p0 resolve to p5-Gtk2-1.221p5 Can't install p5-Gtk2-Ex-FormFactory-0.65p0: can't resolve p5-Gtk2-1.221p5 --- p5-Gtk2-1.221p5 ------------------- Can't install p5-Gtk2-1.221p5: not found # So, I tried building x11/p5-Gtk2, and discovered that it's marked as broken: # cd /usr/ports/x11/p5-Gtk2-Ex-FormFactory # make [[...]] ===> p5-Glib2-1.222p2 is marked as broken: glib2 is threaded but our perl is not so we end up with undefined symbols . *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11/p5-Gtk2 (line 1855 of /usr/ports/infrastructure/mk/bsd.port.mk). *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11/p5-Gtk2 (line 2197 of /usr/ports/infrastructure/mk/bsd.port.mk). # All this makes sense. My question is, since x11/p5-Gtk2 is currently broken, would it make sense to also mark the all the other x11/p5-Gtk2-* ports as broken? Or do we try to localize the "broken" info, and leave it up to try-to-build to propagate the dependencies? Enquiring minds etc... thanks, ciao, -- -- Jonathan Thornburg <jth...@astro.indiana.edu> Dept of Astronomy & IUCSS, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana, USA "Washing one's hands of the conflict between the powerful and the powerless means to side with the powerful, not to be neutral." -- quote by Freire / poster by Oxfam
