Hello-
I am working a new port (for gPodder, a GTK2 python-based media
aggregator) and so far everything seems to be working pretty well
(after reading through the Porter's Handbook -- what a great piece of
documentation). Anyway, I cannot seem to figure out one thing.
The tarball has a man page located in /gpodder-0.9.5/doc/man/gpodder.1.
In my Makefile, I have this:
MANCOMPRESSED= no
MAN1= ${PORTNAME}.1
PORTNAME is gpodder, BTW. Anyway, when I create a package, it
complains that it cannot find or install the man page and I am not
sure how to fix this. Some of the snipped output is this:
===> Compressing manual pages for gpodder-0.9.5
gzip: can't stat: /usr/local/man/man1/gpodder.1: No such file or directory
===> Registering installation for gpodder-0.9.5
===> Building package for gpodder-0.9.5
Creating package /usr/ports/packages/All/gpodder-0.9.5.tbz
<snip>
Creating bzip'd tar ball in '/usr/ports/packages/All/gpodder-0.9.5.tbz'
tar: man/man1/gpodder.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.
pkg_create: make_dist: tar command failed with code 256
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/multimedia/gpodder.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
