When I execute "make index" in the ports directory, I get the "Generating INDEX-5 - please wait.. " message, and about 30-45 mins later I get the "Done." message. But the INDEX-5 file is always 0 bytes in size. This makes it impossible to use "make search" or portversion (can't build the portsdb from a 0-byte file). The system seems to be doing something, and the date/timestamp on the INDEX-5 file gets updated ... yet there's nothing inside. This is a 1 GHz Celeron laptop with 256 MB RAM.

The last time I got a working INDEX-5 file was last Sunday. Any ideas, hints, suggestions, questions, solutions??? -- Freddie Cash fcash-ml@sd73.bc.ca
