I did, but don't have really a solution for it. With 4.1.x, I could build the port, do a pkg_delete and make reinstall. With the 4.2.x meta-port, I build the port (/usr/ports/x11/XFree86-4), did a pkg_delete and a make install. Euh... that was a baaaad idea, since it had only build in that directory, it hadn't done the other parts of the port. Two hours later (life can be very boring if you don't have all the needed libraries on your system) it worked fine again. After that, on a different system, I added these lines to the makefile of x11/XFree86-4: --- Makefile.old Tue Apr 2 12:28:36 2002 +++ Makefile Tue Apr 2 10:46:51 2002 @@ -37,4 +37,13 @@ do-install: # empty +all: + for dir in `make all-depends-list`; do \ + if [ -d $$dir ]; then \ + ${ECHO} $$dir; \ + cd $$dir; \ + make; \ + fi; \ + done + .include This way at least everything is fetched and build before I pkg_delete the whole thing. Life would suck[sp] very much if it failed to compile after I pkg_deleted it... Edwin -- Edwin Groothuis | Personal website: http://www.MavEtJu.org edwin@mavetju.org | Interested in MUDs?
