After installing the necessities, I downloaded the latest ports.tar.gz from freebsd.org, extracted the ports, and did a "make index" from the ports directory. At this point I did "make install" from x11/kde3. Since then I have installed firefox, gaim, and a few other ports. Then, I noticed that I didn't have kmail, and found that it is part of the kdepim port, so I tried installing it. At some point it requires gpg-error.1, during which I get: ===> libgcrypt-1.2.0_1 depends on shared library: gpg-error.1 - not found ===> Verifying install for gpg-error.1 in /usr/ports/security/libgpg-error ===> Vulnerability check disabled >>libgpg-error-1.0.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/. >>Attempting to fetch from ftp://gd.tuwien.ac.at/privacy/gnupg/libgpg-error/. Receiving libgpg-error-1.0.tar.gz (323724 bytes): 100% 323724 bytes transferred in 24.9 seconds (12.68 kBps) ===> Extracting for libgpg-error-1.0 >>Checksum OK for libgpg-error-1.0.tar.gz. ===> Patching for libgpg-error-1.0 ===> libgpg-error-1.0 depends on file: /usr/local/bin/libtool15 - found ===> libgpg-error-1.0 depends on shared library: intl - found ===> Configuring for libgpg-error-1.0 cp: /usr/ports/security/libgpg-error/work/libgpg-error-1.0 /usr/ports/security/libgpg-error/work/libgpg-error-1.0/config.guess: No such file or directory *** Error code 1 When installing other ports, I find that I get similar errors, involving a "config.guess" file. Trying various things, I decided to run "portsdb -Uu", and got: portsdb -Uu Updating the ports index ... Generating INDEX.tmp - please wait..Warning: Duplicate INDEX entry: freeciv-gtk2-1.14.1 Done. done [Updating the portsdb in /usr/ports ... - 11735 port entries found .........1000.........2000.........3000.........4000.........5000.........6000.........7000.........8000..../usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/portsdb.rb:587: [BUG] Bus Error ruby 1.8.2 (2004-07-29) [i386-freebsd5] Abort (core dumped) At this point I am completely clueless as to what to try next. I can't seem to install any ports, and I don't know how to get my ports collection back to a usable state, or what I did to break it in the first place. Of course, I will be happy to provide any addition information. I would appreciate any help that may be offered. _________________________________________________________________ FREE pop-up blocking with the new MSN Toolbar – get it now! http://toolbar.msn.click-url.com/go/onm00200415ave/direct/01/
