Hugin is part of the FreeBSD [http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/graphics/hugin/ ports collection]. Using the ports collection (and contributing fixes to it) is the recommended way to install Hugin on FreeBSD.  The Hugin port is currently maintained by Vasil Dimov <vd (at) FreeBSD.org>.

1. Create a directory '''/usr/ports/graphics/hugin-new''' with the same contents as '''/usr/ports/graphics/hugin'''.  Copy the files '''Makefile''', '''pkg-descr''' and '''pkg-plist''' from '''/usr/ports/graphics/hugin''' to '''/usr/ports/graphics/hugin-new'''

<pre>
−
 
+
$ su

2. Edit the '''Makefile''':
+
# cd /usr/ports/graphics/hugin
−
* Set PORTVERSION to the name of the new release (e.g. 2011.2.0).
+
# make clean install
−
* Set PORTREVISION to 0

* Change any necessary build dependencies in LIB_DEPENDS

* Change any necessary runtime dependencies in RUN_DEPENDS

* Change any necessary Cmake building arguments in CMAKE_ARGS

3. Run ''make makesum'' to create the file '''distinfo'''.

4. Check the '''pkg-plist''' list of installed files and change if necessary. While it can't be done automatically, the trick is to ''make PREFIX=/tmp/foobar install'' and then check the files under '''/tmp/foobar''' (assuming it was non-existent before).

The FreeBSD Ports Collection expects to get the software in the form of a tarball.  When using software checked out of the Mercurial repository, you will need to do some trickery.
 
−
 
 
−
One method is to check out the version and then create a tarball for the Ports Collection to use, but it's easier to first check out a released version (for example the latest release) and then replace it with the version from the repository.  The following example assumes that the current release is version 2010.4.0:

−
CARE: The code below was wrong, and would have removed everything.  I have modified it so it's not so dangerous, but it's still wrong.  Watch this space.
 
−
 
 
−
mkdir -p /usr/ports/graphics/hugin-devel
 
−
cd /usr/ports/graphics/hugin                 ''note: the release directory''
 
−
cp -p Makefile pkg-info pkg-plist distinfor ../hugin-devel
 
−
cd ../hugin-devel
 
−
make patch                                    ''extracts the tarball''
 
−
cd work
 
−
mv hugin-2010.4.0 hugin-2010.4.0-old          ''we currently need this: see below''
 
−
mkdir hugin-2010.4.0                          ''this is referred to by the Makefile''
 
−
cd hugin-2010.4.0       
 
−
rm -rf .                                      ''remove everything''
 
−
hg up                                        ''check out the version you want''
 
−
 
 
−
At this point you currently need to patch the tree.  The [http://tclap.sourceforge.net/ tclap library] that used to be in Hugin has been removed, and until we decide what to do with the FreeBSD build, it will need to be replaced:
 
−
 
 
−
mkdir hugin-2010.4.0/src/foreign/tclap
 
−
cp -p hugin-2010.4.0-old/src/foreign/tclap/* hugin-2010.4.0/src/foreign/tclap
 
−
 
 
−
After this, you can build the version.  Change to the FreeBSD build directory, edit '''Makefile''' if necessary, and build.  If you already have an installed version which you want to keep, you can make a backup of it (second line below):
 
−
 
 
−
cd /usr/ports/graphics/hugin-devel
 
−
pkg_create -b /var/db/pkg/hugin-2010.4.0          ''this usage allows file name completion''
 
−
make install
 
−
 
 
−
Note that the Ports Collection stores a number of dummy files in the subdirectory '''work''':
 
−
 
 
−
-rw-r--r--  1 grog  lemis        0 Jul 28 12:34 .build_done.hugin._usr_local
 
−
-rw-r--r--  1 grog  lemis        0 Jul 28 12:00 .configure_done.hugin._usr_local
 
−
-rw-r--r--  1 grog  lemis        0 Jul 25 10:59 .extract_done.hugin._usr_local
 
−
-rw-r--r--  1 grog  lemis        0 Jul 25 10:59 .patch_done.hugin._usr_local
 
  
−
These are used by the Makefile to know which steps need to be repeated. In particular, the last two are important: if they're missing, the build directory will be removed and replaced by the release.  That's why you need to do a ''make patch'' early in the above procedure.

If you find you need to change something after building or installing (either because of an update or a local bug fix), '''don't''' run ''make clean''.  That would remove the entire work tree, including the sources.  Instead, remove the files '''work/.build_done.hugin._usr_local''' and  '''work/.install_done.hugin._usr_local''', make the changes, and run ''make install'' again.

FreeBSD supports Hugin in the ports collection. The FreeBSD project is currently in a transition from building ports locally to distributing binary packages. This page describes both approaches.

Install the binary package

With the new packages collection, simply: 

$ su
# pkg install hugin

Install the latest released port

The details of building FreeBSD ports are described here. Briefly, once you ensure that your ports tree is up to date, 

$ su
# cd /usr/ports/graphics/hugin
# make clean install

This port is currently maintained by Greg Lehey <grog (at) FreeBSD.org>.

Install the latest development version

The development version is no longer available in the Ports Collection. To build it, update the standard port according to the instructions in the FreeBSD Porter's Handbook
