For some reason that package has a truncated file. It looks definitely as a local problem on your system, if it was a general problems this list would be flooded by problem reports about this by now. You can mail a build log for devel/libtool to me and I can have a look and see what's wrong. You should try having a look yourself first though. You also have the option of grabbing the official package fro the FreeBSD mirrors, which are not showing this problem. > > I see libtool is now at v2.4.4. upstream (www.gnu.org/software/libtool) as of 29-Nov-2014. > > I could try to rebuild devel/libtool, but that won't improve anything if the port or package is defective. > As I said if the port was defective we would be getting floods of reports about this by users, since this is not happening, the ports build cluster is building it successfully and I have not been able to reproduce the problem I guess it's a problem caused by something on your system. You should investigate why libtoolize is being created as an empty file. The ports, for example, depends on gm4 from devel/m4, have you tried also rebuilding that? > I just tried, same result, no joy. I can try to help you, but please move further followups to private mail to me. I could have a look at a build log for libtool from your system. -- Guido Falsi <madpilot@FreeBSD.org>
