When stderr is redirected it no longer listens to what the user types. Since redirecting the output of "make" in a port is quite normal, this breaks building a port that uses the dialog command. The Subversion port is an example. >How-To-Repeat: % cd /usr/ports/devel/subversion % make |& tee makelog The dialog is displayed, but typed keys are echoed instead of used. Can only get out by pressing CTRL-C. >Fix: Unknown. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
