Including big things. Trying to build koffice, I noticed that it was dying in some code installed by autoconf. Perl code. A quick look showed that it was trying to call a routine "move" that wasn't defined. I'm guessing that the "move" that's needed is the one from File::Copy. Turns out there are two File::Copy's. One installed as part of the perl 5.6.1 distribution and one as part of File-Tools. The later doesn't have a move() function. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: devel/p5-File-Tools should be nuked. The CPAN distribution seems to have been removed. autoconf should refuse to install until devel/p5-File-Tools has been removed... >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
