This file documents some of the problems you may encounter when upgrading
your ports. We try our best to minimize these disruptions, but sometimes
they are unavoidable.
You should get into the habit of checking this file for changes each time
you update your ports collection, before attempting any port upgrades.
20221017:
AFFECTS: archivers/star
AUTHOR: fernape@FreeBSD.org
With the update of devel/schilybase to 2022-10-16 a new port archivers/tartest
has been splitted off from archivers/star.
20221016:
AFFECTS: textproc/apache-solr
AUTHOR: mfechner@FreeBSD.org
Apache solr version 9 is released and made available as extra port
textproc/apache-solr9.
Version 9 cannot start directly with data from version 8. Additional steps
for data migration is required.
If you like to use the new version, deinstall the old version and install
the new version:
# pkg delete apache-solr
# pkg install apache-solr9
After this you need to migrate data and migration, for this check the solr
documentation.
20221015:
AFFECTS: users of gstreamer1-* when upgrading via port builds on the host
AUTHOR: riggs@FreeBSD.org
The update of the gstreamer1-* ports to 1.20.3 requires a clean install of
gstreamer1-* ports. In particular, when trying to update ports in-place using
portupgrade or portmaster, the builds are likely to fail due to dependency
mismatches. If this is your preferred update path, you need to deinstall
(pkg delete -f) gstreamer1 and the plugins before reinstalling them from
the ports tree.
Note that pkg upgrade will do the right thing: If you use official FreeBSD
packages or build your own set of packages using poudriere, nothing special
is needed.
20221012:
AFFECTS: devel/websvn
AUTHOR: michael.osipov@siemens.com
WebSVN 2.8.0 includes full PHP 8.x support which requires a change from PEAR
to Composer 2. You must manually install dependencies through it, the ports
system will not handle it anymore for you since */horde* (PR 266552) has been
marked as incompatible with PHP 8.x for the time being. See pkg-message for
detailed instructions.
20221011:
AFFECTS: users of security/acme.sh
AUTHOR: dvl@FreeBSD.org
This update may break your install if you were using a symlink to
%%EXAMPLESDIR%%/acme.sh.conf - that file is no longer installed. Instead,
a log rotation configuration is now installed to etc/cron.d/acme.sh.sample
you should modify etc/cron.d/acme.sh to needs.
The port now installs a log rotation file to etc/newsyslog.d/acme.sh.sample
and you you should update etc/newsyslog.d/acme.sh to suit your needs.
This file has long been part of the port, but was never installed.
Neither the log rotation nor the crontab are active until you remove the
comments.
20221002:
AFFECTS: users of shells/bash
AUTHOR: ehaupt@FreeBSD.org
Bash has been updated to version 5.2. In previous versions, the default port
option-set used to link against libreadline from ports. However, the current
version of devel/readline is too old for bash 5.2.
For now, the default option has been switched to use the bundled version of
libreadline and the other option is marked broken. Once devel/readline is
updated this can be reverted.
If you're updating bash from source and you've previously explicitly set to
use use PORTS_READLINE, you'll have to disable the PORTS_READLINE option
before updating:
# cd /usr/ports/shells/bash
# make config
or flush it entirely:
# cd /usr/ports/shells/bash
# make rmconfig
20220929:
AFFECTS: users of graphics/bmeps
AUTHOR: takefu@airport.fm
The executable name has been changed from this edition from bmpp to bitmap2pp
20220925:
AFFECTS: users of security/libressl
AUTHOR: brnrd@FreeBSD.org
The port has been updated to the latest stable version 3.5 of LibreSSL.
The shared library versions of the libraries have been bumped.
After upgrading, manually update all packages that depend on any of the
libraries provided by LibreSSL (libssl, libcrypto and libtls) since the
versions of these libraries have changed. Normally, you can obtain the
list of dependent software by running the following command:
# pkg info -r libressl
Then you should rebuild all ports depending on libressl to avoid dangling
shared library dependencies.
20220919:
AFFECTS: users of audio/strawberry
AUTHOR: mandree@FreeBSD.org
strawberry now uses FLAVORs based on the qt version, offering -qt5 and
-qt6, with -qt5 the default.
You may need to explicitly install either of the new flavors.
20220919:
AFFECTS: users of sysutils/schilyutils
AUTHOR: fuz@fuz.su
Schilyutils has been split up into two ports. If you want the bosh shell,
the new port is shells/bosh, which can be installed with:
# pkg install bosh
or
# portmaster -o shells/bosh
20220918:
AFFECTS: users of mail/roundcube
AUTHOR: brnrd@FreeBSD.org
Roundcube has been upgraded to 1.6.0 and introduces breaking changes to
configuration options of remote services (imap, smtp, ldap, sieve). Check
https://roundcube.net/news/2022/07/28/roundcube-1.6.0-released for details.
Version 1.6 no longer includes the Classic and Larry skins, which are now
available as separate mail/roundcube-classic and mail/roundcube-larry ports.
20220910:
AFFECTS: users of devel/cmake
AUTHOR: diizzy@FreeBSD.org
CMake has been converted to a meta-port and new CMake packages created causes
conflicts with old binary packages prior to this change.
If CMake was installed using binary packages via pkg it needs to be
uninstalled using pkg delete before installing CMake and related packages
after this change.
pkg delete cmake
pkg install cmake-core
If you're using portmaster you also need to delete the old CMake package
before upgrading.
20220909:
AFFECTS: users of emulators/qemu
AUTHOR: bofh@FreeBSD.org
emulators/qemu has been updated to 7.1.0. Previous 7.0.X branch has
been repocopied to emulators/qemu70. If someone wants to stick with 7.0.X
branch please use one of the following command:
# pkg install qemu70/qemu70-nox11(based on flavor used)
or
# portmaster -o emulators/qemu70 emulators/qemu
or
# portupgrade -o emulators/qemu70 emulators/qemu
20220903:
AFFECTS: users of editors/vim
AUTHOR: adamw@FreeBSD.org
The Vim port no longer installs a system-wide vimrc. It drastically affected
config loading order, and led to various settings being clobbered, duplicated,
or ignored.
Vim's provided defaults.vim (/usr/local/share/vim/vim90/defaults.vim) continues
to be read just as before, but its settings are no longer clobbered. Take a look
in there for any settings you may want to change, and do ':h initialization' to
see where Vim looks for config files.
20220903:
AFFECTS: users of archivers/py-borgbackup
AUTHOR: mandree@FreeBSD.org
Borgbackup has been upgraded to version 1.2. For users who you wish to
continue using version 1.1, use either of these commands for upgrading:
With binary packages through pkg:
pkg set -o archivers/py-borgbackup:archivers/py-borgbackup11
pkg upgrade
With portmaster or portupgrade (replace the command accordingly):
portmaster -o archivers/py-borgbackup11 archivers/py-borgbackup
20220901:
AFFECTS: users of mail/rainloop-community
AUTHOR: yasu@FreeBSD.org

AFFECTS: users of net/xrdp or net/xrdp-devel
AUTHOR: meta@FreeBSD.org
After xorg upgrade to 21.1.4, xorgxrdp session doesn't start as before
This is because bin/Xorg has been replaced with X server binary wrapper.
You must manually edit the Xorg section in etc/xrdp/sesman.ini to get it
working again.
The following is a short example of where, how to modify sesman.ini.
Make sure to replace LOCALBASE with your actual path.

AUTHOR: se@FreeBSD.org
The xorg-server port now has a library dependency on x11/libxcvt,

AFFECTS: users of Erlang and Elixir
AUTHOR: dch@FreeBSD.org
For more than a decade, the Elixir Mix tool and the Erlang rebar
or erlang.mk build tools have been the de facto way of installing
and managing packages for specific applications.
All main-stream applications, from Riak, CouchDB, RabbitMQ, Phoenix,
and Elixir, expect that packages are fetched and compiled into an OTP
Release, with in-built version locking, external package management.
There is no point in maintaining a large number of libraries, that
are used neither for development, nor operations.
Users are directed to https://rebar3.org/ https://erlang.mk/ or
https://elixir-lang.org/getting-started/mix-otp/introduction-to-mix.html
to fetch custom packages.

AFFECTS: users of python
AUTHOR: thierry@FreeBSD.org
The default version of python3 and python was switched to 3.9.
For ports users wanting to keep version 3.8 as default,
add DEFAULT_VERSIONS+= python=3.8 python3=3.8 to make.conf
Following procedures may ease the upgrade:
For users of pre-build packages:
# sh
# for i in $(pkg query -g %n 'py38-*'); do pkg set -yn ${i}:py39-${i#py38-}; done
# pkg upgrade
For portmaster users:
# sh
# portmaster -o lang/python39 python38
# REINSTALL="$(pkg info -o "*py38*" | awk '{printf "%s ", $2}')"
# pkg delete -f "*py38*"
# portmaster $REINSTALL
# REBUILD=$(pkg query -g "%n:%dn" '*' | grep py3 | grep -v py39 | cut -d : -f 1 | sort -u)
# portmaster $REBUILD
# REBUILD2=$(pkg list | grep python-38 | xargs pkg which | awk '{print $6}' | sort -u)
# portmaster $REBUILD2
Final steps (for pre-built packages & portmaster):
If no longer required, Python 3.8 can be removed via
"pkg remove python38" and the directory /usr/local/lib/python3.8 can
then be deleted afterwards, if not empty.

AFFECTS: users of sysutils/fusefs-bindfs
AUTHOR: doralitze@chaotikum.org
Bindfs defaults to use direct I/O since version 1.16. While this results
in major performance improvements as well as several bug fixes, this also
breaks direct legacy calls to mmap. If your application still uses them
consider these two options:
1. Mount using `--no-direct-io`
2. Upgrade your application in order to query mapping guards

AFFECTS: users of science/gramps
AUTHOR: fernape@FreeBSD.org
databases/py-bsddb3 is deprecated and will be removed in the future. With that
gramps will lose the ability to load family trees using Berkeley DB.
It is suggested to migrate all family trees using Berkeley DB by exporting

AFFECTS: users of net-mgmt/netbox
AUTHOR: kai@FreeBSD.org
/!\ WARNING /!\
The NetBox 3.2 release contains major changes, so at least items 1.), 2.)
and 3.) must be checked before proceeding with the upgrade!
/!\ WARNING /!\
1. This release includes a database migration that will remove the "asn",
"contact_name", "contact_phone", and "contact_email" fields from the
site model. (These fields have been superseded by the ASN and contact
models introduced in NetBox v3.1.)
To protect against the accidental destruction of data, the upgrade
process will fail if any sites still have data in any of these fields.
To bypass this safeguard, set the NETBOX_DELETE_LEGACY_DATA environment
variable when running the upgrade script, which will permit the
destruction of legacy data.
A set of migration scripts is available to assist with the migration of
legacy site data:
https://github.com/netbox-community/migration-scripts
2. NetBox v3.2 requires Python 3.8 or later.
3. If the NetBox Plugin "net-mgmt/py-netbox-plugin-extension" is used,
please disable it before the migrations are applied. This can be done
by removing the entry "netbox_plugin_extensions" from the "PLUGINS"
section in the NetBox configuration.
Once the upgrade is done, this port/package can be safely removed as
it's no longer required.
4. Please also check the pkg-message and the changelogs for further info.
20220608:
AFFECTS: devel/autoconf-wrapper, devel/autoconf213
AUTHOR: tijl@FreeBSD.org

AFFECTS: sysutils/zrepl
AUTHOR: monwarez@gmail.com
The zrepl update to 0.5.0.8 includes the following breaking changes:
- The Prometheus metric zrepl_version_daemon was converted to zrepl_start_time
The metric still reports the zrepl version in a label.
But the metric *value* is now the Unix timestamp at the time the daemon was started.
The Grafana dashboard in zrepl examples directory has been updated.

AFFECTS: mail/mutt
AUTHOR: dereks@lifeofadishwasher.com
Default header cache option has been changed to the new option LMDB using

20220426:
AFFECTS: users of deskutils/grantleetheme
AUTHOR: kde@FreeBSD.org
The pkg update of deskutils/grantleetheme to 22.04 can fail due
to a filesystem location having changed from being a file to being

adding the following lines to your /etc/make.conf file:
#
# Keep ruby 2.7 as default version
#
DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=ruby=2.7
If you wish to update to the new default version, you need to first stop any
software that uses ruby. Then, you will need to follow these steps, depending
upon how you manage your system.
If you use pkg, simply upgrade:
# pkg upgrade
If you do not use pkg, please check entry 20190420.
The description there should also work for this version.

Synapse will now refuse to start up if open registration is enabled,
in order to help mitigate abuse across the federation. If you would
like to provide registration to anyone, consider adding email,
recaptcha or token-based verification in order to prevent automated
registration from bad actors. This check can be disabled by setting
the enable_registration_without_verification option in your
homeserver configuration file to true. More details are available in

AFFECTS: users of sysutils/screen
AUTHOR: cy@FreeBSD.org
As of sysutils/screen-4.9.0_5, the MULTUSER option is default, reverting
to the traditional setuid-root behavior. People who wish to secure their
screen install must terminate all screen sessions, then install screen
without the MULTIUSER option. The option was reversed because it caused
too much astonishment among users of screen.
20220401:
AFFECTS: security/sshguard
AUTHOR: kevinz5000@gmail.com
Blacklisting is now disabled by default to avoid overriding the setting in
sshguard.conf. To enable blacklisting, uncomment the BLACKLIST_FILE line in
sshguard.conf.
20220329:
AFFECTS: users of sysutils/screen
AUTHOR: cy@FreeBSD.org
As of sysutils/screen-4.9.0_3, the multiuser feature is not supported
by default. The multiuser feature requires setuid root to function.
This creates a security risk. Some Linux distributions have had
non-setuuid root screen for a dozen or more years. FreeBSD is following
suit. A new MULTIUSER option has been added to enable users to install
setuid root screen. The MULTIUSER option default is OFF.
Users who wish to use the multiuser feature may,
- Build screen using the MULTIUSER option, or
- Poudriere users can use poudriere-options to enable the MULTIUSER
option, or
- Users can chmod the setuid bit for ${LOCALBASE}/bin/screen-4.9.0,
making screen setuid root to enable the multiuser feature.

AFFECTS: users of lang/php8[01][-extensions]?
AUTHOR: bofh@FreeBSD.org
Non-Default OPTION MYSQL80 has been removed in lieu of making
php8[01]-openssl as part of DEFAULT php8[01] installation. Although
for php74 it is not the case. Ports that depends on
security/php8[01]-openssl will no longer be installed as these have
been removed. There is no side effect of this for ports which have
USE_PHP=openssl. In case for php74 as the default php74-openssl will
be installed otherwise it will be used from php installation.
If you are using pkg, you have to remove php8[01]-openssl manually after
the upgrade :
# pkg info \*php8\* > ~/installed-php-ports-list
# pkg upgrade -y
# pkg delete -f php8[01]-openssl
# service -R
While rebuilding from ports users old php.conf is not overwritten. So
have to manually remove the ports. For portmaster users:
# sh

AFFECTS: AFFECTS: users of *-emacs2x-* packages
AUTHOR: jrm@FreeBSD.org
To avoid problems when editors/emacs or editors/emacs-devel are
updated, the emacs major version has been removed from these package
names.
For example, the old and new package names of devel/magit are
-----------------------------------------------------------
| Old Package Name | New Package Name |
|-------------------------- |-----------------------------|
| magit-emacs27 | magit |
| magit-emacs27_nox | magit-emacs_nox |
| magit-emacs27_canna | magit-emacs_canna |
| | |
| magit-emacs29_nox | magit-emacs_devel_nox |
| magit-emacs29 | magit-emacs_devel |
-----------------------------------------------------------
To handle these final package name changes, follow a similar procedure
as the one described in the 20200811 entry. That is, simply running
`pkg upgrade` will not upgrade, e.g., foo-emacs27_nox to
foo-emacs_nox.
Binary package users:
To update these packages, run these commands under /bin/sh with superuser
privileges before upgrading.
# default flavor of editors/emacs installed
for i in $(pkg query -g %n '*-emacs27'); do
if [ "$i" != "notmuch-emacs27" ]; then
nn=$(echo "$i" | sed -e 's/-emacs27//')
else
nn=$(echo "$i" | sed -e 's/-emacs27/-emacs/')
fi
pkg set -yn "$i":"$nn"
done
# canna or nox flavor of editors/emacs installed
for i in $(pkg query -g %n '*-emacs27*'); do
nn=$(echo "$i" | sed -e 's/emacs27/emacs/')
pkg set -yn "$i":"$nn"
done
