Description Val Packett 2020-06-10 11:38:34 UTC
dhcpcd(-devel) really needs --without-udev in CONFIGURE_ARGS. Otherwise it builds the useless-for-us udev module if libudev-devd is installed, and tries to load it every time it runs, resulting in an extra warning.

Hi Greg,

Makes sense to me.

Roy - would you agree with setting “—without-udev” as a CONFIGURE_ARGS for net/dhcpcd on FreeBSD and DragonflyBSD?

Regards,
Ben

Heh, so I finally got around to testing this.
And it's plainly broken for dhcpcd's use case.
udev_device_new_from_subsystem_sysname is not implemented, just a stub.

I've adjusted the configure script to only accept udev by default on Linux here:

You can either add that as a patch for the time being or just disable it in the package build. Either way is fine.

New revision: 539348
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/539348

Log:
  net/dhcpcd: Update to 9.1.2

  Also disable udev support in CONFIGURE_ARGS, given that FreeBSD has
  the function udev_device_new_from_subsystem_sysname if the module
  libudev-devd is installed, but it is not implemented.

Committed - thanks for reporting this one, and for the upstream fix Roy. I added it in the port also to be explicit.
