Bug fixes
Bug in cache/slave ports
I just noticed a bug in the slave ports, when Bacula Server, that excellent backup tool, was upgraded to 2.0.0. The slave port, Bacula Client, was still on the old version. I hope to fix this soon. As a precaution, I emptied the entire cache. 20:45 – fixed. It was a glob, or rather, lack

Virtual Categories are broken!
Remember that wonderful new scheme for parsing URLs? Well, it broke virtual categories. That’s only because I forgot about them. Not because the schema is broken. It will still work, for any item in the tree. But virtual categories are not in the tree. I’ll change the new code to do some extra checks before

Improved Watch List sorting
Christian Ullrich found a problem with the Watch List updating pages. Over the past few weeks, we’ve been working on fixing it. I’ve been coding. He’s been verifying. Today we fixed it. The changes should go into production soon (if they aren’t already). The other thing he mentioned was sorting by last update. If there

Tabs instead of space got me into trouble
I got into trouble yesterday. Or rather, FreshPorts got into trouble because of me. It all centered around a new category called net perl5. I first notice the problem when I received an SQL error message: ERROR: null value in column “last_update” violates not-null constraint CONTEXT: SQL statement “INSERT INTO category_stats ( SELECT categories.id AS

MOVED & UPDATING need cache removal code
Last night I discovered a caching bug related to vuxml processing. I fixed it. Today I realized the same issue affects processing of MOVED and UPDATING. Coded both of them today as well. Anyone got a MOVED or UPDATING commit just waiting to happen? ;) Ideally, I’d be able to find somewhere in the database

VUXML problems
Today I discovered and fixed two problems with VUXML processing. The cronjob that processed VUXML changes was commented out. The last time it had run was July 9th. Uncommenting the entry fixed that issue. The VUXML processing did not clear the cache. I wrote and testing that code just now. It’ll run in BETA for
Watch list interface changes
Royce Williams wrote in with a good suggestion about the watch list interface. When I read it, I immediately new it was a good idea. Royce said the existing icons for adding and removing a port from the watch list were not intuitive. He suggesting using as a base, and putting either a plus (+)

You may have seen this in your new port report recently: 16 Jul 2006 http://www.FreshPorts.org/devel/p5-Class-Multimethods-Pure/ http://www.FreshPorts.org/devel/p5-Luka/ Exception handling and reporting framework What is missing is a description for devel/p5-Class-Multimethods-Pure.

Cache problem fixed
I’ve fixed the cache problem. Reading the last few posts here, you’d know there have been a few cache problems. I’m hesitant to say it’s now all fixed, but well, I hope so. The latest problem related to clearing cache entries. It was a permissions issue. The script which removes the cache entries runs as
