Bulklist blacklist deblacked

Using poudriere locally can allow you to define the ports you install the way you want them.  My present /etc/make.conf controls some defaults and many configurations, I discuss and reveal the iteration as of <date> at placeholder.  The configurations, if I make rmconfig will revert not to the ports normal defaults but those settings I prefer which I set for some of them within the make.conf file.

Collecting the installed ports is as easy as pkg origin >> /var/tmp/installed-pkgs-gross but my script takes this and complicates it substantially so that my bulk list contains only what I desire regardless of what is actually installed.  It also makes category lists and a list which excludes any installed games.  In the past I have installed nearly every game in ports, aside from those which require a CDROM or some other special thing I may not possess.

There are some specific excludes from the final bulk list files which avoids some versioned ports which are largely build dependencies, or can be more easily updated if bulk lists do not include a versioned port.  You can see below in the organizing section that I avoid intel drivers (I have AMD), llvm, qt5, kf5.  java, anything in the lang category, python specifically, bash, and samba.

echo;echo "--"; echo

The blacklist is still rather extensive, it has too many lines still in the file but commented out with a pound symbol (#).  A few of them I have toggled between commented and active, usually rust and firefox and veloren, which tend to be a bit consuming.  I have also changed my mind about libressl and some other ports, those all likely commented right now.  Aside from the lines which are port origins with a # as the first character, I have chosen to include a lot of comments to help document why something is in the file.  It is most certainly good practice to include documentation with any comment mechanism the file format allows, you may not review a file for quite a while after you initially create it.  Frequently the purpose may be lost to time, so add comments at creation so you won't have to remember what you did or why, a good safeguard.

The deblack script below, excludes the port origins by filtering through the blacklist which then creates a fresh bulk list which then becomes the file sent to poudriere.  The command you might issue, if the script is named 'p-keg-deblack' would be poudriere bulk -j 14amd64 -f `p-keg-deblack installed-pkgs-gross` and note the part enclosed by the (`) characters which provides the result of the script in its place.

#!/bin/sh
rm ~/$1-deblack 2>/dev/null
rm /var/tmp/cleaned_blacklist 2>/dev/null
rm /var/tmp/list 2>/dev/null
rm /var/tmp/sorted_list 2>/dev/null
cp $1 /var/tmp/list
cat /var/tmp/list | sort -d -u > /var/tmp/sorted_list && rm $1 && cp /var/tmp/sorted_list $1
grep -v \# ~/Symbolic_Links/14amd64-blacklist | sort -d -u > /var/tmp/cleaned_blacklist

diff -B -w $1 /var/tmp/cleaned_blacklist | grep \< |sed  -e 's/^<\ //g' -e 's/---//g' -e '1d' > ~/$1-deblack

echo $1-deblack

When I figure out how I might handle moved or renamed or nonexistent ports, I may revisit the scripts and post an update.  Until then, if any of those conditions exist, poudriere will halt right after providing an error or warning message describing which correction needs to be made.  Be careful about typos in your blacklist file since those can be confusing because you may assume the error is in your bulk list like it would be for the previous reasons.

Try out building your own local ports with the options you prefer that are different than the defaults.  Of course, once more, Essential caveat: Use those scripts at your own risk, I make no promises.  I believe they are safe but test and verify and choose to use them when you're satisfied.

Luanti minetest fallout

It had been mentioned long ago that minetest ought to change its name.  This was considered necessary for the minetest engine to be viewed apart from minetest the minecraft-esque game.  Distancing itself from a very specific type of voxel game would allow for the engine to be used for a greater variety of game development using the engine, much like godot and others.  The change to the name of the executable, and all references to it in most places in the code and supporting files, and the eventual switch to a git repo with its name cause a lot of upheaval.

The new name for the engine is Luanti, is a sensible and meaningful name even if some won't change their thinking of it and may continue to refer to it as minetest.  Many paths once had a minetest directory, many files installed either had minetest in their name or were placed in one of those directories.  What I had to change over a few days and a few upstream commits included the pkg-plist and some lines in the Makefile.  I had to test numerous times, after each change to be sure everything was done accurately.  At present, the upstream git repo is not yet luanti-org/luanti, but it may change in time from what is now minetest/minetest.

The Makefile adjustments below took more time to test than to edit of course because I had to attempt to build and then check what the pkg-plist that was generated looked like.

# It used to be such that 

I automate some pkg-plist adjustments with a simple script I modify for each significant 'unofficial port' that I make.  It speeds the process of making sure that everything is accurate and consistent between rebuilds and new commits to my repo based upon upstream changes.  All the places in the script where it now has luanti had once been minetest.

#!/bin/sh

The options config has changed somewhat, organized a little nicer.  The touch option was moved into the luanti config itself, and my method to use system fonts instead of bundled fonts can still be toggled.

If you had used minetest in the past, one other change is rather visible.  I toggled off the clouds in the luanti config which makes it much more game agnostic.

Luanti start screen GUI

At the moment this is the only way you can use the very most current Lunati client for minetest games and for your game engine needs.  Eventually the ports committer for games/minetest will have to go through much of the same work I finished above to create games/luanti.  Their task is delayed for public consumption even if they have done the work on their local machine because they track releases rather than upstream commits as I do.

Bisect was a cache

I had been having troubles playing minetest, the symptom was sporadic lag, slowdowns, stuttering.  I had been seeing debug information in the xterm where I start minetest or other messages suggesting something that implied bad network.  Eventually I mentioned this on a NodeCore minetest discord server and gave information about what I was seeing.  This is where I was told that it seemed like my lag was network related.

The debug text repeated many many times:

"2024-09-24 20:42:06: WARNING[Main]: collisionMoveSimple: maximum step interval exceeded, lost movement details"

Within the next day or so, I finally decided to try to upgrade the ZIL and SLOG on my main box which I use to play minetest.  I had set two SSDs for this quite a long time ago and couldn't remember which one was the SLOG and which was the ZIL, so I ended up causing both to be disabled by pulling them out.  I managed to restore the SLOG but did not fix the ZIL at that moment.

What I discovered after this happened while the ZIL (cache) device was no longer being used, completely nonexistent and removed from my box, was that minetest no longer had those lag issues.  Prior to this, I had planned to attempt to discover where in the series of commits to minetest that things went wrong.  I had backtracked to a much earlier version of minetest, hoping to find a time when this sporadic but slowly progressively worsening lag began.  I was set to learn how to bisect the commits to discover when the issue appeared, but since removing the cache SSD cured the lag for my minetest client and also shortly also noticed some less snappiness in my GUI (FVWM3) as well, the whole bisect need was averted.  This blog post would have documented my experience with the whole bisect of minetest client process had I done so.

Instead of telling my tale of learning something new (bisect) I learned that my cache device must have had some kind of problem which was dragging my entire system down.  This should be one more thing to check, to see if your unexplained network lag debug report or similar message indicating network performance issues has nothing to do with actual networking, rather that essentially disk i/o was interfering with network transmission. If I knew off the top of my head how better to triage disk i/o, or prove that it was not network in actuality, then this entire conversation is likely to have been much shorter.

Since the cache (ZIL) was removed, I took a few moments to attach two 500GB SSDs as a striped cache device.  Perhaps over time it will speed things up, but at least now it is only going to be a positive addition, not something which will slow the system and network packets for a game.  If you have cache devices attached to your system for ZIL especially, remember that it can be the reason for general lag on your system when that SSD becomes faulty in one regard or another.
