For a whie now, I've been running pkgsrc from NetBSD on IRIX to build packages from scratch, thus ensuring that they're fully optimised for my machine.

I'll record the necessary changes in this thread, so that anyone who's interested can also play with pkgsrc without lots of head=scratching and problems.

First up, my mk.conf . I have this in /usr/bsd/etc/, and a symlink pointing here in /etc.

These settings configure pkgsrc to exist in /usr/bsd/src, owned by netbsd:netbsd. Running pkgsrc as a non-root user is a great idea when used as a secondary package manager, to ensure that no OS files can be overwritten - although pkgsrc is actually very good at ensuring that this doesn't happen.

(I also changed the permissions on /usr/bsd to netbsd:sys, so that the necessary top-level directories can be created)

Note that the PKG_OPTIONS only cover packages I've actually installed, and that the Java related stuff doesn't work just yet...

Also note that the TOOLS_PLATFORM and command settings should be commented out until these binaries actually exist!

Next up, create a " netbsd " user and group. I set the user's home to /usr/bsd/src (e.g. the pkgsrc root directory) with bash (3.1, compiled from source manually with GCC to ensure that it's not broken) as the defautl shell.

Some problems still remain which I've not been able to fix yet... there's a cosmetic issue where builds will output something along the lines of "work/.buildlink/wrapper/bin/cc[50]: Not found" a number of times, but this to be caused by a malformed logging statement in one of the pkgsrc .mk files, and doesn't look like anything serious.

More problematic is that meta-packages (which only pull in other real packages) don't work - they will always mis-detect that the first package they depend on is not present (even if it is), and will then rebuild it - but complain when it gets to the installation stage that the package is already present. This happens even if the dependant package is first uninstalled. This can also be worked around by simple installing the constituent packages and ignoring the meta-package, but this is messy.

The are many packages which don't compile by default with MIPSpro on IRIX, many of which require only changes to the pkgsrc Makefile. This is especially true when building with the " -apo " Auto-parallelisation option, which causes binaries to addiitonally require being linked to libmp.so . This is often solved by adding:

Code: Select all


   LDFLAGS.IRIX+= -lmp

... to the Makefile. If this doesn't work, then:

Code: Select all


   LIBS.IRIX+= -lmp

... is worth a try.

A final note on APO - there are some things it just can't handle. If the build process faults with a segfault followed by an internal compiler error, then running the most recent invocation of $CC/$CXX again without APO, and it will succeed and the build can continue from where it left off - ghostscript-gnu is a good example of this. gtk2 , on the other hand, will generate these faults for every object in the gdk subdirectory... in this case, removing all instances of "-apo" from the Makefile is much easier.

So far, I've found the following packages which won't build on IRIX/MIPSpro without source code changes:

devel/gettext
devel/gettext-tools
fonts/ttmkfdir2
net/ORBit2
archivers/zip
audio/flac
audio/gqmpeg
audio/speex
audio/vorbis-tools
chat/bitlbee
chat/gaim
graphics/freetype-lib
graphics/freetype-utils
lang/perl5
misc/pinfo
misc/watch
multimedia/libmpeg2
pkgtools/p5-pkgsrc-Dewey
print/ghostscript
security/gnutls
sysutils/findutils
sysutils/gnome-vfs2
textproc/libxml
x11/xterm

... and note that any version of bash3 built on MIPSpro will not work correctly - there's something in there which only likes GCC (the build will complete and bash will run, but some syntax will not be parsed correctly. For example, "echo $(( 3 + 4 ))" should output "7", not "4: command not found".

devel/gettext and devel/gettext-tools include a horrible macro which is GNU-specific, and then even more fragile tests to try to determine if you're using a compiler which doesn't like this (which seems, frankly, to be most of them - including Apple's GCC!)

I've tried to get this fixed, but the MIPSpro fix applied in-tree doesn't actually solve the problem (although possibly due to miscommunication on my part...)

The necessary patch to be applied after invoking "bmake patch" in the devel/gettext and devel/gettext-tools directories are:
