This time it was during "portinstall jdk15". ===> Installing for m4-1.4.8_1 ===> Generating temporary packing list ** Missing pkg-descr for m4-1.4.8_1. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/devel/m4. *** Error code 1 This time it is on a brand-new install of FreeBSD 6.2. How can I be responsible for the "pkg-descr". This is the second time I have asked this question. I got no help before. My email was down briefly. Did I miss the answer? Thank you, -- Wayne M.
