The PDFLib (Version 3) library to dynamically generate PDF files is no longer developed and supported. It's impossible to build the port since the distribution archive is vanished (as Bento reported). The actual version is PDFLib 4.0.1 (Version 4). Fix: Create the pdflib4 port as reported in http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=33725 and update the dependences of the ports which require this library. How-To-Repeat: Just build the port or any port that require it.
I suggest we simply call this port pdflib instead of pdflib4. Attached is my cleanup of the port submitted as http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=33725 The cleanup mainly consists of sorting pkg-plist and adding %%PERL_VER%%/%%PERL_ARCH%% macros so this port will work on -CURRENT as well as -STABLE. The library version was bumped to .4 since the pdflib3 port had bumped it to .3 already. And some trivial post-install target cleanup. Does the same thing in a more ports like fashion. :) -- Yarema
I agree with you. We may simply call this port pdflib. I merged your adjustments with mine. The differences are: - USE_PERL5 is now enabled - patch-configure is in the shar - INSTALL_MAN is used instead of INSTALL_DATA for the docs Alex Dupre
