Created attachment 169914 [details] poudriere testport output. ntop-5.0.1 tries to link against librrd_th.so which is no-longer present in rrdtool-1.6.0. Fix probably requires porting ntopng: http://www.ntop.org/products/traffic-analysis/ntop/ https://github.com/ntop/ntopng which is effectively a completely new port, with a new version numbering scheme.
Quick-fix: make ntop depend on databases/rrdtool12, which should keep things ticking over while I look into a better solution.
A commit references this bug: Author: matthew Date: Tue May 3 10:49:03 UTC 2016 New revision: 414525 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/414525 Log: ntop is failing to configure after r414458 updated rrdtool to version 1.6.0. ntop depends on librrd_th.so (threading enabled shlib) which has been removed from the latest rrdtool package -- threading is now always enabled. Quick fix: make ntop depend on the older rrdtool12 port. Longer term fix: investigate 'ntopng' http://www.ntop.org/products/traffic-analysis/ntop/ PR: 209230 Changes: head/net/ntop/Makefile
Hi, By the way I'm working on bringing back the ntopng port, I'm working with the upstream author on this. I am almost done, but there are a few upstream issues that still need fixing. I have a working port for testing. If anyone is interested please contact me.
I'm very glad to hear that, having just scoped out what would be involved in writing a ntopng port. Which means that this PR is now superfluous, and I shall close it forthwith and do what I can to help with madpilot's work.
