This is not a bug in the port but a bug in the upline syslog-ng. Our syslog-ng upline has told me that they did not include man pages in syslog-ng thus the port needs to generate them itself. They will fix this in the next release of syslog-ng. (In reply to Cy Schubert from comment #1) Thanks for the quick response Cy Shubert, Any way I can stop the docs from bulding at all ? Because I'm using poudriere to build packages with OPTION_UNSET= DOC and I get an error about the docbook.xsl. I wouldn't expect docs to be build when unsetting DOCS or I should use another option for skipping documentation building ? As mentioned in your response, do you have an ETA for the next release of syslog-ng ? Thanks The syslog-ng upline has produced a specially rolled distfile to address this issue. A commit references this bug: Author: cy Date: Tue May 31 13:02:21 UTC 2016 New revision: 416196 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/416196 Log: Due to an oversight by the developers of syslog-ng, syslog-ng-3.7.3 did not contain pre-generated man pages therefore syslog-ng37 generated them from source. Unfortunately this caused conflicting requirements by users of syslog-ng37 between those who wanted man pages and those who did not want docbook-xsl as a prerquisite to build this port. This commit resolves this by using a specially rolled distfile that incluldes pre-generatded man pages. Thank you to Peter Czanik of balabit.hu, the company that produces syslog-ng, for providing the specially rolled distfile and for providing this patch.

Changes: head/sysutils/syslog-ng37/Makefile head/sysutils/syslog-ng37/distinfo Wow, this is awesome, super fast response. Thanks a lot. Now I don't have to keep a modified Makefile and pkg-list. |
Created attachment 170822 [details] Diff file with a before and after. Building package with DOCS option unset still uses docbook.xsl for building the man pages. This caused a build error looking for the docbook.xsl.
