If you would read the output, there is "/usr/tmp/usr/ports/net/samba/Makefile.inc" the file which could not created. 1st: /usr/tmp should not be used, use /var/tmp instead 2nd: use a writeable working directory if you not want to build as root. It's supported by the script, but you must support it, too. > b) it cannot create in $WRKDIRPREFIX, because it can be read-only for user, > that run fetch or checksum. The working directory must be writeable. Please read /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk for more details. > There is not clear solution. There is.
