Are you sure it couldn'nt be a disc problem with the > ports files being corrupted? Yeah, I'm confused too :), but that's what's going on. I have a cronjob that syncs my ports tree every day at noon. It does: /usr/local/bin/cvsup -L 2 /usr/sup/supfile /usr/local/sbin/portsdb -Uu /usr/sbin/pkg_version -v | grep "needs" My supfile is: *default host=cvsup11.us.freebsd.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5_2 *default use-rel-suffix compress src-all ports-all tag=. doc-all tag=. Additionally, I should mention that the problem isn't consistent. For instance, yesterday, the cronjob ran and I was notified (pkg_version -v) that there were updates to XFree86 et.al. I got home last night, and did a portupgrade -a. No problem. Today at noon, cvsup (via cronjob) ran again. I got home tonight and finally decided to install xmms. So I did a "portinstall xmms" and it installed fine. Later on, I decided I wanted to install fwbuilder. "portinstall fwbuilder" started, then eventually bombed with the patch errors. So I "rm -rf /usr/ports", did cvsup again which sucked in a virgin ports tree again, then tried "portinstall fwbuilder" again. I'ts humming along nicely now. I'll entertain the possiblity of disk errors, but I am not having any other noticeable issues, and I have just one big filesystem (/). Is it possible portsdb -Uu is hosing things? -Duane > > - -- > Do yourself a favor, don't use IE! > www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ > > PGP is Preferable for Email, Public > key available off PGP Key Server. > GPG Key ID: 0x787AD6A9 > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (FreeBSD) > Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org > > iQCVAwUBQRq2Fgx4IHh4etapAQIBiAP/UPczhmA2vnigt8b1oxM9Ko1RubDeSp1/ > 774R3bLk5sA/Rob+Co+cYEK1leoffdCRTJTZ4nQXeRyT1dUEJfjTxwdcjkR4utAY > yt0t9paJgbQenRCcdYMVftYwRlFDXnS5u/ifxkNfjgOflTLuVImLVjJ852D0D5ad > mUAHLDeIbxM= > =wE69 > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" >
