For some reason, the configure script is unable to read the files it
creates in /tmp. This causes the MMX test to fail (even though the kernel
has CPU_ENABLE_SSE), then it crashes and burns when the png test fails:
Checking for PNG support ... ./configure: /tmp/mplayer-conf--31112.o: permission denied
no (mismatch of library and header versions)
...
Error: PNG support required for GUI compilation, please install libpng or libpng-dev packages.
Here's some other relevant info:
ls -l /
drwxrwxrwt 8 root wheel 512 Sep 24 20:59 tmp
uname -a
FreeBSD hostname 4.6.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.6.2-RELEASE #0: Sat Sep 21
13:13:24 EDT 2002 hostname:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MULTIMEDIA i386
pkg_info | grep png
png-1.2.4 Library for manipulating PNG images
Even weirder, I'll remove the mplayer directory, re-cvsup, remove the tar
file from /usr/ports/distfiles, try again without using MAKE_GUI=yes and I
still get the same png error. Same error if I cd into the work directory
and run the configure script manually.
