the Clipit Pkgfile example: trying to update it

[dufresnep]

Well, in http://nutyx.org/en/scenario-C
there is a quoted Clipit Pkgfile as a test of the configuration.

When I did try to run it unchanged... I was getting an error style:
intltool version > 0.23 needed (from memory... try it about 3 days ago).

I come to look where I can get source code on  the net and come to update it to:

Code: [Select]

root [ /usr/ports/personal/clipit ]# cat Pkgfile
description="ClipIt is a lightweight GTK+ clipboard manager."
url="http://clipit.rspwn.com/"

maintainer="Gilberto Xyhthyx <xyhthyx at gmail dot com>"
packager="Paul Dufresne"

makedepends=(gtk)

name=clipit
version=1.4.4
release=1
#https://github.com/CristianHenzel/ClipIt/archive/v1.4.4.tar.gz
source=(https://github.com/CristianHenzel/ClipIt/archive/v$version.tar.gz)
build() {
  cd $name-$version
  ./configure --prefix=/usr \
  --sysconfdir=/etc
  make
  make DESTDIR=$PKG install
}
root [ /usr/ports/personal/clipit ]# But getting that when trying to build it:

Code: [Select]

root [ /usr/ports/personal/clipit ]# mkpkg2
bash: mkpkg2: command not found
root [ /usr/ports/personal/clipit ]# ls

Not sure what way to go from there.

Those news sources don't follow the "normal schema". If you check via the command:

Code: [Select]

bsdtar --list --file /usr/ports/personal/clipit/v1.4.4.tar.gzyou will see that they change the root directory in the archive.

Code: [Select]

...
ClipIt-1.4.4/src/preferences.c
ClipIt-1.4.4/src/preferences.h
ClipIt-1.4.4/src/utils.c
ClipIt-1.4.4/src/utils.h
ClipIt-1.4.4/update-poYou need to do:

Code: [Select]

cd ClipIt-$version instead of

Code: [Select]

cd $name-$versionWill need to find another example.

Where did your read you should use pkgmk2 ?
This command is not maintained anymore. I guess I should remove it from the build

[dufresnep]

I don't remember from where I got to know pkgmk2.
Might be just by ls.
At some point I found pkgmk was not working for me, but pkgmk2 was working fine.
I still have this feeling now... and a bit sad to learn you want to remove it.

I'll try to find you an example of pkgmk2 working better than pkgmk when I will be in front of my own computer again.
