FreeBSD midgard.glz.hidden-powers.com 8.2-STABLE FreeBSD 8.2-STABLE #97: Sat Apr 2 18:50:40 CEST 2011 root@midgard.glz.hidden-powers.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SERVER amd64
>Description:
pkg_add of a nullmailer package create from current ports failes with
Creating "/usr/local/etc/nullmailer/me.sample".
./+INSTALL: cannot create /usr/local/etc/nullmailer/me.sample: No such file or directory
pkg_add: install script returned error status
This is due to the fact that the etc/nullmailer directory is create with a Makefile command in post-install:
@${INSTALL_DATA} -c ${FILESDIR}/remotes.sample ${PREFIX}/etc/nullmailer/
During package installation this line is not executed so when the installation script runs it fails with the above error.
>How-To-Repeat:
Build a package of nullmailer nullmailer-1.05_2,1 and try to install using pkg_add.
>Fix:
Either add a line
mkdir -p %%PREFIX%%/etc/nullmailer
to the pkg-install.in file or change the way the remote.samples is included in the package.
