If you read CVS, bsd.port.mk was changed by asami on Janurary 2nd to check for old versions of TCL, rather then checking the version of TCL, it just checks to see if TCL is installed in (Asami's words) "the old place" <read in: default location for all TCL, except for added by the new ports/packages>. IMHO, this is a flaw, but what can you do.. besides nuke the files from the locations, or tell bsd.port.mk not to check. (grep -i tcl /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk to see where it checks). would be much nicer to grab TCL_VERSION out of tcl.h, but when I presented that to him I never got a reply.. _</dev/random>________________________________________________________________ thomas stromberg % sysadmin(royal.institute.of.technology@haninge/stockholm) smtp(dev.random@dev.random.nu)%irc(devrandom)%talkd(random@dev.random.nu) "nothing is impossible, some things just take more lines of perl than others" > Something is broken in bsd.port.mk. > When I try to make X11 port it gives me an error about tcl > > have an old tcl installation on your machine. > Remove everything that matches /usr/*/*tcl* first. >
