Description 3d freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2001-03-21 13:50:01 UTC
The last two entries on the CVS web interface view of opendx, thus
 
    http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/graphics/opendx/files/ 

look pretty fishy:

    [TXT]] patch-src:uipp:dxui:MacroDefinition.C  1.1   30 minutes  tg   - Remove `-lcompat' again, the new patches contain code fixes. - Fix paths in th...
    [[TXT]] patch-src:uipp:prompter:Browser.C  1.1   30 minutes  tg   - Remove `-lcompat' again, the new patches contain code fixes. - Fix paths 
The names are unusual, and CVS produces no proper link (try to click these files to get a look at them - it won't work).

I suspect that CVS web parsing has a problem with this stuff, but it 
might be as well the case that something unusual has been commited (what I can't check this moment).

1) they're not fishy, they are more descriptive names of what the patch patches 
2) clicking on the links works fine in netscape.

Patch to ${WRKSRC}/src/uipp/dxui/MacroDefinition.C.

Hmm, I guess so.  Lynx doesn't seem to work either, unless you go
directly to the link.  Weird.

Report this to knu@FreeBSD.org, it's obviously a cvsweb issue.  The
filename itself is not unusual.

Ok, I forwarded the mail to knu@freebsd.org.

I understand that the colons (':') are legal FreeBSD file names,
but other systems have their problems - Cygwin just barfed:

    mvw@NIL /dos/mvw/projects/3d/opengl/opendx
    $ tar xvfoz files.tar.gz
    files/
    files/patch-ab
    files/patch-ac
    files/patch-acconfig.h
    files/patch-acinclude.m4
    files/patch-ad
    files/patch-ah
    files/patch-configure.in
    files/patch-src:uipp:dxui:MacroDefinition.C
    tar: files/patch-src\:uipp\:dxui\:MacroDefinition.C: Cannot open: No such file o
    r directory
    files/patch-src:uipp:prompter:Browser.C
    tar: files/patch-src\:uipp\:prompter\:Browser.C: Cannot open: No such file or di
    rectory
    tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

but that is a different construction zone .. :-)

Thanks,
Marc

It actually was a bug of cvsweb.cgi.

Fixed by properly encoding colons in file names. 

Thanks for the report!
