porting

Hello. There is a tool called "Universal Android Debloater" and it is meant for debloating Android phones. I'm trying to port it but I am getting some errors. The program is written in Rust completely, so i thought it would be easy to port it but i guess there are some libraries/features being...

Hello all, https://wiki.freebsd.org/arm The wiki does not list support for the SoC that interests me. Now, I know I could just go out and buy something with one of the SoCs that IS supported, but I've got this great 10in, 10yo tablet, that, despite its age, has a killer battery (after I rooted...

I am working on some ports that will run game servers that have custom rc daemons scripts are made to avoid the process running as root for some basic security. I read the handbook and get how to add them so that isnt a problem however I see that there is only 949 slots available (this ignores...

Hello, I am making a port, and I was wondering what the proper solution is to the following dependency question. The software I am porting has a build and run dependency on Node.js v12 or higher (and actually yarn-node >= 12 also). Since there are separate ports for each LTS version...

I have just seen that neither the signalapp / Signal-Desktop nor the deltachat-desktop app has been ported to FreeBSD yet. Has anyone already taken a look if it's possible or to run the (Debian-based) Linux binary? Or to run the Windows app with Wine? P.S. I'm not using FreeBSD (waiting for...

I was just wondering if someone would be interested in porting signalapp / Signal-Desktop or if there is specific reason why it hasn't been ported yet (Linux only?). P.S. I'm not using FreeBSD (waiting for 13.0 RELEASE to go onto my new laptop) or Signal yet, nor am I a developer, so this is...

Hello all, I am a new user to FreeBSD and I decided that I wanted to move from MacOS to FreeBSD. I am currently using a Macbook pro from 2015 and I want to do the transition from MacOS to FreeBSD for both privacy reasons and familiarize with another operating system. I am currently studying...

I'm having trouble figuring out how to patch some Makefile.am files to fix the symlink paths during staging, make stage-qa displays these warnings: ====> Running Q/A tests (stage-qa) Warning: Bad symlink '/var/db/glusterd/hooks/1/delete/post/S57glusterfind-delete-post' pointing to an absolute...

Hello everyone, I am trying to port python-vlc to FreeBSD (in order to port castero, a nice TUI podcast client). Here is my Makefile. # $FreeBSD$ PORTNAME= vlc PORTVERSION= 3.0.6108 CATEGORIES= python PKGNAMEPREFIX= ${PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX}...

I am (an) upstream developer of the Mudlet MUD client and having recently started to use FreeBSD (11.1-Release) alongside Debian Linux I want to get it ported to this platform. I have managed to tweak the Github hosted source code so it can be run but I have a couple of issues (at least) to...

wetty is a nice node.js application that lets you run a terminal over HTTP. I run it because I work in an environment that filters the ssh protocol (not just 22). I just ported it over to FreeBSD (though it hasn't been pulled in yet). In short, there were some Linux-specific variables and...

The ripgrep regex search utility was on the Wanted Ports list, so I took a stab at it. The version linked to in this bug report (https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=219916) builds, installs and runs for me.

Hi friends! I'm try to port development version of tesseract-ocr, and do it regarding to existing graphics/tesseract port. I write that Makefile (mostly copied from existing): # $FreeBSD$ PORTNAME= tesseract-devel PORTVERSION= 4.0.0a CATEGORIES= graphics MAINTAINER=...

Hi, I'd like to create some rust ports. My major hurdle is that there is no ports/Mk/Uses/rust.mk yet and while I am eager to learn stuff my Rust, Porting, Makefile, etc. skills are below what's needed for that. I'd love to add ripgrep, as it is essentially working (compiling, etc.) out of the...
