I just watch #FreeBSD ports making software. This "package" manager looks damn simple. I love that.

foo depends on bar
bar not found
lets make bar
foo depends on bar
bar found
foo depends on fizz
fizz not found
lets make fizz
fizz depends of hjkl
hjkl not found
lets make hjkl

Make everything as simple as possible. 🥰

Hey #FreeBSD people! One of the things I learned today at the first day of DConf 2021 is that the entire D language infrastructure runs on FreeBSD because the language creator (Walter Bright) is a fan of FreeBSD. That's also why FreeBSD is an officially supported platform.

Feel like there's an opportunity here for the FreeBSD people...

@dvl Ok, and in a contender for 'wow that was a long reply'.. I finally got around to this, I repro-ed it, and solved it. In the Latest directory there is a pkg.pkg.pubkeysig, what pkg (for me) looked for was pkg.txz.pubkeysig, I just linked that and :boom: bob's your uncle. You may need pkg.tgz.pubkeysig or pkg.tbz.pubkeysig depending on your poudriere configuration

I heard there was a secret code,
That David typed, and it fixed the Lord's
VPN latency issues.

I'm gonna keep posting this until one of you fucking boosts it

@phryk on ios15 with the ios link it took me to the app store (after a very quick redirect through safari)

@mwlucas it is kinda big iron, and they had that recentish security kerfluffle but I
use and enjoy ubiquiti products

@dvl i do this via local directories so far (keep meaning to setup a webserver for this). It is very annoying that (apparently) pkg has different behavior for local vs http repos. Let me experiment 🤔

@dvl so I do my local pkg repo setup via poudriere, one thing I note is that pkg is 'special', it is in "Latest" directory AND in the "All" directory, in the Latest directory it has its own individual signature, whereas the "All" directory is signed all at once with a signature that encompasses the ENTIRE repo together via their hashes; if you look in the Latest directory of your repo, do you have pkg there? is there a signature file next to it?
