shar archive of the ports directory
Starting with version 0.2.5, sudo-rs supports FreeBSD. So we also thought it
would be nice to provide the initial packaging of it.
sudo-rs provides an alternative implementation to the sudo command that has a
reduced feature set and uses memory safe implementations for most of the sudo
logic, but still should be able to work with most existing sudo policy
configurations.
About this portsfile:
- I have introduced a COEXIST option that will allow sudo-rs to be installed on
the same machine as security/sudo (and install binaries as "sudo-rs",
"visudo-rs", etc.). This is off by default, so by default it has a conflict
with security/sudo (and if someone installs a ports that depends on sudo using
"pkg", it will mean pkg will try to replace sudo-rs with sudo--that's maybe
unfortunate for us, but shouldn't hurt users)
- I have disabled tests if "make test" is run as root: some unit tests are not
intended to run as root, and generally this is probably a bad idea anyway.
- The maintain address is my email address at the foundation that owns this
project.
