[/snip] Not knowing the syntax of this file, I've doctored the make/make-3.76.1/make.texinfo by removing the lines 28, 29, 32, 63 above. Now, gmake seemed to install but just not to register : [snip] ===> Installing for gmake-3.76.1 Making install in glob /bin/sh ./mkinstalldirs /usr/local/bin install -c -s -o bin -g bin -m 555 make /usr/local/bin/gmake /bin/sh ./mkinstalldirs /usr/local/info /usr/bin/install -c -o bin -g bin -m 644 ./make.info /usr/local/info/make.info /bin/chmod g-s /usr/local/bin/gmake /usr/bin/chgrp bin /usr/local/bin/gmake install -c -o bin -g bin -m 444 /usr/ports/gmake/work/make-3.76.1/make.man /usr/local/man/man1/gmake.1 install-info: not found *** Error code 1 [/snip] So, it looks like gmake was installed in usr/local/bin/gmake fine. I'm guessing that the failure of install-info won't have any affect on functionality, chas To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
