Tue Jan 2 14:32:43 PST 2007


   I have a belkin pci wireless card and belkin usb wireless. I cannot
   get freebsd to detect those. It will detect the ethernet card I also
   have installed. I downloaded pkg for wireless from sysinstall. I have
   kde desktop  3.5.....



   thanks

     Yes,I know it.
     The 2.9.x (aka ParaView III) release is the dev release,
     and the GUI has been much improved vs the 2.5.x release.

     ftp/proftpd deletes /usr/local/etc/proftpd.conf when updating. I
     thought I had
     it fixed, but it continues to delete the config. Here's the section
     in the
     makefile:
     post-install:
     [ -f ${PREFIX}/etc/proftpd.conf ] || \
     ${CP} ${EXAMPLESDIR}/etc/proftpd.conf
     ${PREFIX}/etc/proftpd.conf.sample
     .if !defined(NOPORTDOCS)
     @${MKDIR} ${PREFIX}/share/doc/proftpd
     .for f in ${PORTDOCSdoc}
     @${INSTALL_DATA} ${WRKSRC}/doc/${f} ${PREFIX}/share/doc/proftpd
     .endfor
     .for f in ${PORTDOCScontrib}
     @${INSTALL_DATA} ${WRKSRC}/doc/contrib/${f}

     @${INSTALL_MAN} ${WRKSRC}/src/ftpdctl.8
     ${PREFIX}/man/man8/ftpdctl.8
     .endif
     It creates proftpd.conf.sample properly, but then deletes
     proftpd.conf. BTW
     proftpd.conf is not in the pkg-plist.
     How do I fix this?

     My guess is that the actual proftpd Makefile (not the port
     Makefile)
     is doing something during "make install" which nukes the existing
     proftpd.conf in PREFIX/etc.
     Logically your Makefile sh code looks like it should do exactly
     what
     you intend it (copy the EXAMPLESDIR configuration to etc as .sample
     if the test(1) returns a non-zero exit code).
     I assume it still breaks if you change the above sh code to the
     following?
     if [ ! -f ${PREFIX}/etc/proftpd.conf ]
     then
      ${CP} ${EXAMPLESDIR}/etc/proftpd.conf
     ${PREFIX}/etc/proftpd.conf.sample
     fi

     In fact, mayavi2 needs vtk-python.
     So I would be very happy if you could provide vtk-python port for
     VTK 5.
