Well, you don't state if you were trying to build it under FreeBSD, at least your comments about what your environment is are confusing. The FreeBSD port works find IF you use a current copy of the port to build it on a FreeBSD host, with a current copy of /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk installed on the machine. I can't comment at all about your Linux problems. The FreeBSD port will be useless there. A FreeBSD port doesn't build software, it adapts software to build smoothly on a FreeBSD host (and manages things like building binary packages, installing, deinstalling, etc.) > ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@eng.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 213 Lakeside Drive Apt T-1 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run Journey2 and picnic, both FreeBSD (301) 220-2114 | version 3.0 current -- and great FUN! ----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
