maxim, please hard wrap your lines around 65 or so characters. it's very daunting to quote your message otherwise. this was, on the fateful occasion around Sep 25 06:48 -0400, sent by Maxim Sobolev > > Heh, I've already told you several times that you can't make > arbitrary changes in the port's makefile and expect that it will > "just work". i am quite aware of it; that's why i didn't file pr and have given up on filing pr when packaging fails after changes. but in this case, i got the impression that perhaps packging won't fail this time. (see my original message for the reason.) btw, jeremy lea's suggestion (via private mail) of undoing the changes and using -DWITHOUT_GNOME option did the trick. > I would like to suggest you to obtain some glue about how the ports > system works first (for > example, read Porter's Handbook) and then look back at your changes > to find why it was failing. > > -Maxim i thought the porter's handbook was only for those, well, porters. i will see it later. -- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
