b6f69c39999bfb85af262363b4fe22edc80027d7 - release: Fix dependency ordering

Tue, 07 Oct 2025 22:48:06 +0200

release: Fix dependency orderingThe 'make release' command triggers some sub-builds, in particular'real-release' (which builds install images) and 'vm-release' (whichbuilds VM images). These both now depend on pkgbase-repo.Unfortunately for historical reasons 'make real-release' has used arecursive make instead of proper make dependencies; this results inthe pkgbase-repo target being invoked twice since the recursive makedoes not have any awareness of the targets being run by the parentmake command. Since the pkgbase-repo target starts by creating thepkgbase-repo directory, the second make command incorrectly assumesthat target has already been built; this showed up in 15.0-ALPHA5builds with pkgbase-repo.tar being empty as it was created after thepkgbase-repo directory was created by before that directory had beenpopulated.Changereal-release: make obj make ${RELEASE_TARGETS}to a single linereal-release: obj .WAIT ${RELEASE_TARGETS}in order to handle dependency deduplication properly while keepingthe intended behaviour that "obj" completes before ${RELEASE_TARGETS}.Diagnosed by: jrtc27, emasteReviewed by: emasteMFC after: 1 daySponsored by: https://www.patreon.com/cpercivaDifferential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D52972 List of files: /freebsd/release/Makefile

release: Install pkg from the pkgbase repoIf we're building pkgbase media, install the pkg package from thepkgbase repository we already created, not from pkg.freebsd.org.Aside from being more desirable, this also fixes make release forversion/architecture combinations which are missing repositoryon pkg.f.o (which is nearly all of them at the time of writing).This doesn't yet work for bootonly, since we don't build the pkgbaserepository there.

This avoids silently creating media which doesn't havepkg(8) on, and therefore can't be used for a pkgbase install.Installing pkg(8) can still be entirely disabled by setting NOPKG.MFC after: 1 dayReviewed by: ifreund_freebsdfoundation.org, cpercivaDifferential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D52635 List of files: /freebsd/release/Makefile
