I'm (finally) trying crochet today. Ultimate goal is to try and build for Cubieboard, but I'm starting with something easy first - RaspberryPi.
First I had to get all the pieces (the script does a very nice job of explaining what what is missing. One possible refinement for a future version would be to list all missing pieces, not just the first one).
Next I discovered that my world build failed. Lookiing at the log file work/_.buildworld.armv6.log I can see this:
===> lib/libexpat (cleandir)
rm -f bsdxml.h bsdxml_external.h libbsdxml.3.gz libbsdxml.3.cat.gz
rm: bsdxml.h: Permission denied
rm: bsdxml_external.h: Permission denied
*** Error code 1
Stop.
make[4]: stopped in /usr/src/lib/libexpat
(I wasn't running crochet as root, and I suspect it is the reason for failure)
Question 1: it look to me like the script is trying to remove stuff (files) from /usr/src. Why is it doing that?
Question 2: why does crochet need root?
- all prerequisites (that needs root) are already installed
- the script is installed in ~/work/crochet-freebsd and all building takes place there
so why does it need root?
