Can't find packages

[mausy5043]

I want to install

Code: [Select]

tree and

Code: [Select]

python3 (3.5 or 3.6).

Neither seems to be available in the OPNsense repository.

I'm also wanting to install other packages.
What are my options?

[fabian]

you can request packages via GitHub (https://github.com/opnsense/tools/issues/new) or build them from the ports tree (https://github.com/opnsense/ports)

Guessing that is the long way round. 

or build them from the ports tree (https://github.com/opnsense/ports)

I think that would probably be the way to go.
Just to make sure I'm clear on the workflow:
1. pkg install git
2. cd /usr
3. git clone https://github.com/opnsense/ports.git
Right? Did I forget something?π

yes: change into the directory and build the port
It is a category with the port name as a subdirectory. You can build it using the Makefile.

To reiterate:

# opnsense-code tools ports
# cd /usr/port/category/name
# make install

Great! thanks.

Wishing '#' would complete to 'sudo'. Would make copy & paste even easier. ;-)

[franco]

Whoops, sorry for the German in there. I'll fix that up...

How about "sudo csh" and exit again when done?

I always wanted to make opnsense-code a little more clever to be able to operate e.g. the ports tree. If someone wants to try I'm happy to review.

Unfortunately, no joy:

Code: [Select]

% cd /usr/ports/sysutils/tree
% sudo make install
/!\ ERROR: /!\

Ports Collection support for your FreeBSD version has ended, and no ports are
guaranteed to build on this system. Please upgrade to a supported release.

Stop.

Almost there. FreeBSD obsoleted FreeBSD 11.0 very quickly after 11.1, namely 3 months so 6 month release cycles are hard to finish in that time.

A change was reverted in the tools to make 17.7 the default again. This will fix it:

% sudo opnsense-code tools

The error has turned into a warning and the build works fine. Seems to have worked.

Thanks.

But where would you advice me to get the kernel sources from?

Code: [Select]

===>  lsof-4.90.q,8 requires kernel sources.
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make[1]: stopped in /usr/ports/sysutils/lsof

[franco]

% sudo opnsense-code src


Cheers,
Franco

[mausy5043]

Already tried that

Code: [Select]

% sudo opnsense-code src
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
Which surprised me as it does exist.

[franco]

/usr/src is created by FreeBSD by default even if empty. Git doesn't like that. I forgot. Sorry.

% sudo opnsense-code -f src

I'll fix this in the next version of opnsense-code.


Cheers,
Franco

This will automatically fix it in the future... https://github.com/opnsense/update/commit/db7f7ce0c0
