Margiotta" X-Sender: gary@surreal.vrhost.com To: current@freebsd.org Subject: Building ports... Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Heya... I apologize if this is a slight off topic question, but I think it might be related to -current... Just loaded a 3.1-STABLE box, and went to build a couple of ports. First it told me that I couldn't use the bsd.port.mk because it was too old. Fine, so I go and cvsup the current sources for /usr/share, and I do a make install in /usr/src/share/mk. The files install properly, and I go to the ports collection. I go into a number of ports, and try a 'make' an any given port. It then tells me the following: fetch: illegal option -- A So, it can't go out and grab the needed files to build the port. No big deal, I just go grab the source and make it manually. This is not a huge problem, but I'm just wondering what I've done wrong, or what I'm stupidly forgetting to add or do additionally... Any feedback would be great, TIA!!! ______________________________________________________________ -Gary Margiotta Voice: (973) 835-7855 TBE Internet Services Fax: (973) 835-4755 http://www.tbe.net E-Mail: gary@tbe.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
