https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196626 Bug ID: 196626 Summary: [archivers/dpkg] "update-alternatives" command needs directory "/usr/local/var/log" Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: pawel@FreeBSD.org Reporter: antumdeluge@gmail.com Assignee: pawel@FreeBSD.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(pawel@FreeBSD.org) After installing archivers/dpkg, running the "update-alternatives" command results in the following: $ update-alternatives --install /usr/local/bin/gcc4 gcc4 /usr/local/bin/gcc48 100 update-alternatives: error: cannot append to '/usr/local/var/log/alternatives.log': No such file or directory I created a patch for the Makefile that creates this directory post-install. I'm not sure if I did it in the right format. This is the command that I used: $ diff -uN Makefile.orig Makefile > dpkg-Makefile.patch I figured that I don't use the "make makepatch" for this instance because the changes have nothing to do with the source code. --- Comment #1 from Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> --- Auto-assigned to maintainer pawel@FreeBSD.org -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
