Hi all. I'm porting a GUI editor, cooledit, and everything is fine EXCEPT
when I try to pkg_delete the port. The port uses gmake, which I've set.
Once the port has been installed and I try to pkg_delete it to check if
everything is being deleted, I get the following error:
peloton: {301} pkg_delete cooledit-3.5.2/
pkg_delete: package 'cooledit-3.5.2/' doesn't have a prefix
When I look in the +CONTENTS file, I find it's missing the line
@cwd /usr/local
If I manually add this line the pkg will delete correctly.
Do I need to set something to get this to show up there? I've never had
to do this before and if I put an echo in the port Makefile with
"blah blah blah ${PREFIX}" it outputs blah blah blah /usr/local.
My bsd.port.mk is from Nov 13th which appears to be the latest one.
I'm confused!
Brett
