The problem is apparently related to checking to see if the port is already installed - the install or deinstall fails with an *** Error code 1 IMMEDIATELY after the line that says "==> Checking to see if [this port] is already installed." I have seen in the forums that I am not the only 4.5-RELEASE user who has had this problem suddenly crop up. Since it showed up out of nowhere, I have CVSUPped both my ports and source trees in their entirety, with no effect. It is worth noting that the ports still MAKE, they just will not install or deinstall. It is also worth noting that manually cd'ing into the work dir and doing a ./configure and make install works fine, as far as producing a working application - it simply doesn't install it in the package database, and of course if there were any dependencies you didn't already have, you have to go chase them down, blah blah blah. Incidentally, pkgdb reports that there are no problems or issues with my package database, and this machine has the entire ports tree cvsup'ed automatically once daily whether it needs it or not, so to speak. >How-To-Repeat: Sit at a FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE box. Attempt to make install a port, any port, any port at all. >Fix: The only workaround I know of right now is making the port, then manually doing a ./configure and make install from the work directory, as outlined above. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
