Clark >Release: FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE i386 >Organization: >Environment: FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE, the port, net/everybuddy, is at, # $FreeBSD: ports/net/everybuddy/Makefile,v 1.20 2002/09/03 01:06:20 lioux Exp $ >Description: Everybuddy installs its modules in the wrong place (or it is looking in the wrong place). The modules end up in, /usr/X11R6/lib/everybuddy/modules/ However, when you start up everybuddy, you get a warning that it cannot find any modules in, /usr/X11R6/share/everybuddy/modules/ Note that the difference is that install puts them above the 'lib' directory and the executable looks in 'share.' >How-To-Repeat: Install the port from scratch and try to run it. >Fix: I'm not sure whether this is a result of the port trying to control the install prefix and messing things up, or something within everybuddy itself. However, for a quick (and ugly) workaround, # ln -s ../lib/everybuddy /usr/X11R6/share Or insert your PREFIX for /usr/X11R6. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
