Compiling a port (no jail)

StefanAO · Post by **StefanAO** » 19 Jan 2014 15:47

Hi everybody,
I would like to install the ports collection on my nas4free 9.2 system in order to compile a package (deluge) from source. Thus I would preferrably like to install portsnap or the ports collection manually (and the neccessary files for compilation). I do not want to use a jail, as programs inside a jail don't seem to be able to maniplulate the network interface and I want to use deluge and SOCKS5 proxies. Based on my experience so far, this does not work from within a jail (without changes to how jails are handled by FreeBSD).

pkg_add -r portsnap does not work, as that package does not exist in the package repository I currently use (the standard one: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports ... se/Latest/. I can install subversion, but it won't work as 'libmagic.so.4' is missing

Could someone please help me getting my system set up so that I can compile a port without using a jail?

Thanks a lot!

Nas4Free cannot compille any software. Please use jail.

Thanks for your answer, although in my case, this is unfortunate. Compiling in a jail is not an option for me as long as I cannot use a socks5 Proxy from within the jail. Anyways, thanks for answering...

You can compille under jail, then make package, then add compilled package to main NAS4Free (must be full-version)
But in case deluge this way not work, it replace original libraries and you can lost server

I tried that before and it got really messy, deluge relies heavily on python and I never got it to work once it was outside its original environment.

do a new fresh & complete BSD install and compile what you want, bu you can't have in the same full BSD a Nas4Free system, you my need to decide what you want, or use a jail ( I know that this is not the answer that you want, but is true)

I have no proxy (so i can't try) but this and this don't work?
I think it must be possible to use proxy in Jail https://anonymous-proxy-servers.net/wik ... eBSD-Jails.

Yes, you are right, I was probably mistaken. Using a proxy inside a jail does not seem to pose a problem.

I got deluge compiled and running in a jail now, connecting to the TorGuard socks5 Proxy. Problem now is though, that libtorrent 0.16.13.0 unfortunately still has problems connecting to udp trackers. This issue was supposed to be resolved with version 0.16.11 (version in FreeBSD 9.2 is 0.16.10, that's why I compiled deluge from the newer source). I opened an thread on the deluge forum http://forum.deluge-torrent.org/viewtop ... =7&t=46571 and committed a bug https://code.google.com/p/libtorrent/is ... 1390248313.

My current solution is to run openvpn and channel all traffic through the vpn. As I was unable to get openvpn running in a jail (maybe I confused this with the proxy solution), openvpn was installed inside nas4free directly. This is obviously not the solution I am aiming for, but currently it seems like as long as libtorrent does not fix this bug, there is no other way.
