This is probably a -questions kinda topic, but: If you've installed it before, you might have a previous build heirarchy. Check for a "work" direcotry in the port/* directory you're trying to 'make' in. You'll probably find a 'work/.build_done', easy thing is just to 'make clean ; make' (or a few other ways too). If that's not it, I'm sure more info is required. -philip -- Philip Kizer, USENIX Liaison to Texas A&M University Texas A&M CIS Operating Systems Group, Unix To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
