I am having an odd problem on the firefox port. This is a fresh
install of Freebsd 6 and basicly what its doing ...
=3D=3D=3D> Generating temporary packing list
=3D=3D=3D> Checking if www/firefox already installed
=3D=3D=3D> firefox-1.5_5,1 is already installed
You may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install this port again
by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.
If you really wish to overwrite the old port of www/firefox
without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
in your environment or the "make install" command line.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/www/firefox.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/www/firefox.
I have tried, make deinstall ; make reinstall same error. I am not
sure of what i should set FORCE_PKG_REGISTER to but i tried, YES,
www/firefox and NO for the settings on it. Running it like this :
FORCE_PKG_REGISTER=3D"NO" make reinstall ... i did this on make
reinstall and make install and nothing still..
make deinstall ...
root@# make deinstall
=3D=3D=3D> Deinstalling for www/firefox
=3D=3D=3D> firefox not installed, skipping
root@#
any suggestions please.
Thanks
