I was debating sending it to freebsd-ports, but wasn't sure so decided to send it to the general list in hopes of either being told where to forward it to, or having my question answered. I recently noticed that I had multiple versions of Guile installed on my box (FreeBSD 4.1.1 Stable Fri. Oct 27) so I uninstalled them both, and tried to install the port again. During the compilation gawk core dumps and the process halts. After a while of trying to figure out what was causing it, I noticed that Guile checks for multiple versions of awk (Gawk, plain ol' awk, nawk, mawk). I deinstalled gawk (so that I only had plain awk) and was successful in compiling and installing the port. I don't know if gawk worked before when trying to compile guile because I don't know if I had it installed before trying to compile guile for the first time. If someone could verify whether this is a problem with their machine and not just mine I can make a patch so that guile doesn't check for gawk in the ports collection. This is all with the latest versions of guile and gawk. --=20 Sincerely, Caleb Land (bokonon@rochester.rr.com) --8t9RHnE3ZwKMSgU+ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAjn8w1QACgkQJFp+8ilAIxRBSACfeCUBTF9hv63uITGSu8NBUqDD LPQAn1xTEppucji1byjyyKiWLd1hJ39K =HVIX -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --8t9RHnE3ZwKMSgU+-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
