Having received my StarOffice CD from Sun :) I set about following the instructions at http://www.serv.net/~mcglk/staroffice-install.html which said to install the linux_base port. After ~2 hours of d/ling it bombed out during the build: gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/misc/rpm/work/rpm-2.5.5/popt' gmake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/ports/misc/rpm/work/rpm-2.5.5/misc' cc -I/usr/ports/misc/rpm/work/rpm-2.5.5 -I/usr/ports/misc/rpm/work/rpm-2.5.5 -O -pipe -I/usr/local/include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I/usr/ports/misc/rpm/work/rpm-2.5.5/lib -I/usr/ports/misc/rpm/work/rpm-2.5.5/misc -c getm ntent.c -o getmntent.o getmntent.c: In function `getmntent': getmntent.c:26: variable `item' has initializer but incomplete type getmntent.c:26: warning: excess elements in struct initializer after `item' getmntent.c:26: storage size of `item' isn't known gmake[1]: *** [getmntent.o] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/misc/rpm/work/rpm-2.5.5/misc' gmake: *** [make-subdirs] Error 1 *** Error code 2 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. What is causing this? I could fix it myself, but it's a port (last cvsup'd yesterday) so it should work. Also, it d/l rpm-2.2.5 twice: >> rpm-2.5.5-5.2.i386.rpm doesn't seem to exist on this system. >> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/linux/redhat/old-releases/redhat-5.2/i386/RedHat/RPMS/.

Is the port broken, or is something screwed on my system? ``uname -a'' output: FreeBSD marder-1 3.3-STABLE FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE #1: Wed Oct 6 20:02:26 BST 1999 mark@marder-1:/usr/src/sys/compile/MARDER-1 i386 TIA. -- STATE-OF-THE-ART: Any computer you can't afford.
