Creating gzip'd tar ball in '/usr/ports/packages/All/expat-1.95.7.tgz' tar: lib/libexpat.so.5: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors pkg_create: make_dist: tar command failed with code 512 The missing so files are consistent with what I see when I try to build against an upgraded expat installation. The packaged version works just file: the so files are installed and all is well. But portupgrade wants to upgrade expat, and when it does, those missing files make everything else fail. I have no idea how to resolve the issue at the port level: is there a workaround? and I have been pulling from CVS so this shouldn't be an issue of being out of sync, I don't think. ruby is at 1.8.1, per someone else's advice, as well. -- Paul Beard paulbeard [at] mac.com --Apple-Mail-9--614810123--
