Hi...I'm trying to understand and use the CVSup program and stay current with FreeBSD. I'm reading the handbook on www.freebsd.org and I am thrown off by the third paragraph on section 18.3.3.2 that seems to say that the Modula-3 libraries will be compiled and/or installed automatically when I install the CVSup port. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, so here's a summary of what I've done: => installed the system with a minimal install from CDs of 3.2-RELEASE => put make on the system (grabbed from ports/distfiles/Mk) to help install future programs => installed BIND (needs to be updated with latest version, i know) => system sat idle as other real-life things prioritized ahead (familiar?) ....and today.... => copied cvsup-16.0.tar.gz from ftp5.freebsd.org to /usr/ports/cvsup/ => unzipped and untarred => cd cvsup-16.0 => more Announce; more Blurb; more Install (taking notes all the way) => make M3FLAGS=-DNOGUI ...and that runs for just a few seconds and dies with: m3build: not found *** error code 127 Stop. *** error code 1 Stop. # Should I grab ports and manually install Modula-3? I don't find any listings on the ftp server in the distfiles directory for mod* where I would expect it...but I'll keep looking.
