Description Yuri Victorovich freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-11-19 18:30:14 UTC 
Testcase: the port dns/amass

Ports framework recommends ${INSTALL_PROGRAM} to be used to install elf programs.
INSTALL_PROGRAM resolves to 'install -s -m 555'.

install(1) prints warnings:
> ===>   Generating temporary packing list
> install  -s -m 555 /usr/ports/dns/amass/work/amass-2.8.3-4-g935e6d5_GH0/bin/amass /usr/ports/dns/amass/work/stage/usr/local/bin

Comment 1 Ed Maste freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-03-18 19:55:17 UTC 
Can you attach (the unstripped) bin/amass to this PR or store it somewhere and link it here?

Comment 3 Dmitri Goutnik freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-04-03 19:25:58 UTC 
One possible workaround would be to avoid stripping Go-built executables during install and omit symbol table and debug information during link instead (with -ldflags="-s -w" go build flag) [1]

For ports that use USES=go this could be done on ports framework level (unless WITH_DEBUG specified)

I am experiencing the same behavior when building textproc/markdownfmt.

Do you think that we could included something in the framework to address those warnings?
