While make tries to build and install a port it also builds and installs all packages it depends on. There are lots of reasons to fail a port build: 1) Port depends on other ports that are outdated 2) Conflicts with already installed ports (normally make detects and reports such conflicts) 3) Something wrong in your ports tree (and you definitelly has this issue due to OO-1.0.3 - from the latest ports tree, however mozilla-1.0.2 is at least half year old, and jdk-1.3.1p8_2 is also replaced with jdk-1.3.1p9) Fixes are: 1) Install OO from package (i.e. precompiled) - it is much simpler and in most cases is good enough 2) CVSup your ports tree to latest Then you could try to build OO without JDK or consult http://www.freebsd.org/java on jdk installation procedure 3) As soon as you are a "good enough" investigate FreeBSD handbook, then buy a book (or books) about FreeBSD. I think you'll find recomended reading on www.freebsd.org. And dont forget that knowlege is nothing without practice :o) Hope it will help you, Seva __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
