USES| Feature | Arguments | Description |
|---|---|---|
ada | (none) | Depends on an Ada-capable
compiler, and sets CC accordingly. |
bison | (none), build, run,
both | Implies that the port uses devel/bison in one way or another. By
default, with no arguments or with the build
argument, it implies bison as a build-time
dependency, run implies a run-time dependency,
and both implies both run-time and build-time
dependencies. |
charsetfix | (none) | Prevents the port from installing
charset.alias. This should be installed only
by converters/libiconv.
CHARSETFIX_MAKEFILEIN can be set to a path
relative to WRKSRC if
charset.alias is not installed by
WRKSRC/Makefile.in. |
cmake | (none), outsource | The port will use CMake for
configuring and building. With the outsource
argument, an out-of-source build will be performed. For more
information see Section 6.4.4, “Using cmake”. |
desktop-file-utils | (none) | Implies that the port uses the
update-desktop-database from
devel/desktop-file-utils. An
extra post-install step will be run without interfering with any
post-install steps already in the port
Makefile. Lines will be inserted into the
plist to run update-desktop-database on
package install or removal. |
fuse | (none) | Implies the port will depend on the FUSE library and handle the dependency on the kernel module depending on the version of FreeBSD. |
gettext | (none), lib, build,
run | Implies that the port uses
devel/gettext in one way or
another. By default, with no arguments or with the
lib argument, implies
gettext with build-time and run-time
dependencies, build implies a build-time
dependency, and run implies a run-time
dependency. |
gmake | (none) | Implies that the port uses devel/gmake as build-time
dependency. |
iconv | (none), lib, build,
patch | Implies that the port uses iconv
functions, either from the port
converters/libiconv as a
build-time and run-time dependency, or from the base system on
10-CURRENT after a native iconv was committed
in 254273. By default, with no arguments or with
the lib argument, implies
iconv with build-time and run-time
dependencies, build implies a build-time
dependency, and patch implies a patch-time
dependency. For more information see
Section 6.21, “Using iconv”. |
imake | (none) | Implies that the port uses devel/imake as build-time
dependency. |
motif | (none) | Implies that the ports uses
devel/open-motif as a library
dependency. End users can set WANT_LESSTIF
for the dependency to be on
devel/lesstif instead of
devel/open-motif. |
ncurses | (none), base,
port | Implies that the port uses ncurses, and causes some useful variables to be set. |
pathfix | (none) | Look for the Makefile.in and
configure files in the port's associated
sources and fix common paths to make sure they respect the FreeBSD
hierarchy. |
pkgconfig | (none), build, run,
both | Implies that the port uses devel/pkgconf in one way or another.
With no arguments or with the build
argument, it implies pkg-config as a build-time
dependency; run implies a run-time dependency;
and both implies both run-time and build-time
dependencies. |
pure | (none), ffi | Implies that the port uses lang/pure in one way or another,
but largely is used for building related pure ports.
With the ffi argument, it implies devel/pure-ffi
as a run-time dependency. |
qmail | (none), build, run,
both, vars | Implies that the port uses mail/qmail in one way or another.
With the build argument, it implies
qmail as a build-time dependency.
run implies a run-time dependency. Using no
argument or the both argument implies both
run-time and build-time dependencies. vars
will only set QMAIL variables for the port to use. |
readline | (none), port | Implies that the port uses
readline as library dependency, and
sets CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS as
necessary. |
shared-mime-info | (none) | Implies that the port uses
update-mime-database from
misc/shared-mime-info. This
uses will automatically add a post-install step in such a way that
the port itself still can specify there own post-install step if
needed. It also insert lines into the plist for package install
and removal to run
update-mime-data with the correct
arguments. |
shebangfix | (none) | A lot of software uses incorrect locations for script
interpreters, most notably /usr/bin/perl and
/bin/bash. This fixes shebang lines in
scripts listed in SHEBANG_FILES. Currently
Perl,
Python,
Bash, Ruby,
and PHP are supported by default. To
support another interpreter, set SHEBANG_LANG
(for example
lua_OLD_CMD and
lua_CMD. |
zenoss | (none) | Implies the port uses
net-mgmt/zenoss in one way or
another, but largely is used for building zenoss related zenpack
ports. |
