I just posted this message yesterday, sorry for the repost, but I realized
that it would probably be helpful to show some errors.
My system is currently running 3.0-970124-SNAP. While trying to install
majordomo on my system, it couldn't find /usr/local/bin/perl, and I
noticed that the version of perl that came with FreeBSD was 4.0 or
something.
Of course, I went to go install perl 5.003. However, the compile died
immediately with the error
In file included from perl.h:611,
from miniperlmain.c:10:
sv.h:250: parse error before `DIR'
sv.h:250: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union
sv.h:264: parse error before `}'
*** Error code 1
Now, I thought this was some problem with the include files, so I sup'ed
FreeBSD-Current's include files, but that didn't fix it. Then I sup'd
FreeBSD-Stable's include files, which also didn't fix it.
Also, I wanted to compile sendmail 8.8.5. This "DIR" bug bites me again:
mci.c: In function `mci_traverse_persistent':
mci.c:909: `DIR' undeclared (first use this function)
mci.c:909: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
mci.c:909: for each function it appears in.)
mci.c:909: `d' undeclared (first use this function)
mci.c:910: parse error before `int'
mci.c:920: `ret' undeclared (first use this function)
mci.c:953: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast
*** Error code 1
Both of these compiles were not using the ports collection. I tried
compiling perl through the ports with the same results, and sendmail from
the Current sources (I sup'd the whole tree on the offchance that it MIGHT
fix it, which it didn't) with also the same results.
I'm stuck -- does anyone else at all have these problems??
HELP!!!
