This talk is focused on ways to improve the quality
of FreeBSD's ports and packages and it's partially
based on the 5 months experience of writing and
running the consecutive versions of "QA Tindy".
Ion-Mihai "IOnut" Tetcu is a 28 years old FreeBSD
ports committer and maintains about 40 ports scattered
in the Ports Tree. He lives in Bucharest, Romania
where he runs and co-owns an IT& company and he's

Building self-contained PBIs from Ports (Automagically)
Creating a self-contained application from the ports tree
PC-BSD provides a user-friendly desktop experience,
for experts and casual users alike. PC-BSD is 100%
FreeBSD under the hood, while providing desktop
essentials, such as a graphical installation system,
point-n-click package-management using the PBI
system, and easy to use system management tools;
All integrated into an easy to use K Desktop
Environment (KDE).
The PBI (Push Button Installer) format is the
cornerstone of the PC-BSD desktop, which allows
users to install applications in a self-contained
format, free from dependency problems, and compile
issues that stop most casual users from desktop
adoption. The PBI format also provides power and
flexibility in user interaction, and scripting
support, which allows applications to be fine-tuned
to the best possible user experience.
This talk would go over in some detail our new PBI
building system, which converts a FreeBSD port,
such as FireFox, into a standalone self-contained
PBI installer for PC-BSD desktops.
The presentation will be divided into two main sections:
The Push Button Installer (PBI) Format
- The basics of the PBI format
- The PBI format construction
- Add & Remove scripting support within PBI
Building PBIs from Ports "Auto-magically"
- The PBI build server & standalone software
- Module creation & configuration
- Converting messy ports into PBIs

Recently I have been attending Hostobzor 12th, the
Russian conference of hosting providers, beeing
held at Raivola hotel near St. Petersburg. The event
was great as always thanks to organizers. There was
a number of intersting talks given, a lot of
interesting discussions held, and, what I appreciate
better, a lot of new people with great ideas met.
I gave a talk on using the FreeBSD Ports system to
mange a large-scale virtual hosting installations
based on Hosting Telesystems experience. I tried
to describe in detail how we use the ports collection
to deploy a large number of servers diverced by
architecture and OS versions, how we build packages
and distribute them among servers, talked about how
we use Mercurial VCS to incrementally merge upstream
changes into our modified ports collection and
FreeBSD src trees. Hopefully, I've not screwed it
much... At least, some people was interested a lot
and asked interesting questions.
