Thanks!

If somebody has spare time, I'll collect the in my eyes important
packages to be fixed.  Now that hasso is busy with life packages won't
fix themselves automagically anymore.  So we as a group need to work on
them.  Clearly this list does not claim to be exhaustive.  I'm simply
pointing out some packages that might be interesting/rewarding/important
to be fixed.

that must be a build "issue".  are those always listed?  I know that

Oh, I forgot the important part:

http://avalon.dragonflybsd.org/reports/20091011.1705/

Has the logs from the build - parrot, for instance, failed because of a
plist error, so that's an easy fix.

Uploaded reports match the YYYYMMDD.HHSS of when a build starts, so as the
directory fills up with reports, that's the best way (right now) to
correlate a build report with the build logs.

Note that stable version isn't there only because it's blacklisted for
DragonFly.

Sure - misc/openoffice3. But it's blacklisted for DragonFly.

I'll fix vlc, don't bother with vlc08, it's dead.

Fetch isn't, vnc stuff is, but has awful build system.

Yes, I think that noone just cared and these "issues" will go away once
pbulk builds will use user destdir by default which should happen quite
soon now.

This is Linux-PAM.

Yes. Never bothered because I don't use pf myself.

Nope. This is only apache-2.0 variant which is failing because of the mess
with different apr versions etc. This "issue" should go away with removal
of apache 2.0 which has been discussed already AFAIR.

PLIST errors are often very far from being trivial to fix - invloving
solving issues with different platforms or setups installing different
files etc.

The very same lang/parrot is a good example - it's not "let's just add
missing files into PLIST" issue, but "let's find out why shared library
are not built on some platforms (notably NetBSD)" issue.

Well, I hoped it was easy...  Parrot is on a monthly development cycle, so
I expect some problems to crop up.  I sent a note to the package
maintainer.

Should build problems generally be addressed by filing reports in NetBSD's
GNATS, especially for packages where the owner is pkgsrc-users@...?

I've had good luck mailing maintainers directly, but that's more because
of good maintainers than the process itself.

Only if the submitted report includes the fix or you specifically say
you use or need the package. Just reporting via GNATS for problems as
listed by bulk builds is frowned upon.
