I only have /usr/ports/distfiles. I'd be curious as to how you built the port, then. This might be your problem. You *should* have a directory /usr/src/ports/devel/ddd with some files in it. If you have the CD-ROM, you can extract it from ports/ports.tgz and then build it like this: # mkdir /usr/src # cd /usr/src # tar xzvf /cdrom/ports/ports.tgz devel/ddd # cd devel/ddd # make all install > By downloading the libc.so.3.0 you offered me I was able to compile, but > ddd hanged at startup. > Then I 'ln' libc.so.3.0 to libc.so.2.2, and it worked! This is dangerous. You may stop other critical parts of your system from working. If that happens, you may have to reboot in single user mode and perform some deep magic in order to recover it. You should replace your libc.so.2.2 as quickly as possible. > The only problem is that ddd hangs when I want to display > derreferenced pointers. Do you guys have the same problem or it's > just my strange mixture :) ? Well, I don't use ddd. I tried it and found it too cumbersome. But I can recall gdb (which runs in the background) running into some serious CPU usage at times like these. Is ddd really hanging, or is it waiting on a looping gdb? > I think 'make' should look some file to know which libraries (especially > libc.so.*) to use in order to compile the port. This have to do with each > port, or it's a system setting? Well, make does what its Makefile tells it. I suspect that your problem is that you haven't been using the FreeBSD port. Greg
