Re: FreeBSD ports for GNUMail and Pantomime

[Edwin Ancaer]

Hello,

publicly ask a question and then you suddenly see that stupid error you did not find before......

I've got poudriere working now and build all the necessary ports for GNUMail and Pantomime. It took almost 16 hours on this old laptop (especiallyclang is very hard for this machine).

Of course, I built it from the default ports tree, which was not  changed, but the result looked OK.

I hope to find the time to build the updated ports tomorrow.

Thanks,

Edwin Ancaer

First, thank you very much for looking at this!  It’s been on my todo list for a while and keeps being bumped off the top.

This looks suspicious.  The path /usr/local/poudriere/ports is a path on your host system, but poudriere should be running the build in a jail.

This also looks a bit odd, because this filesystem should be mounted read-only in the jail.  The work directory should be somewhere else (a separate zfs or tmpfs filesystem that’s destroyed after the build).

It looks as if your poudriere configuration or invocation is wrong.  Could you paste the poudriere commands that you used to create the jails and ports tree and the testport line?
