Satoshi, You were right first time, it was the fact that these three filenames were in lower case that was causing the problem. Originally I used WinZip to unarchive the port tarball and then ftp'ed the resulting files to the FreeBSD box. This time, having downloaded a fresh copy of the port so that I could give you the ls output you requested, I ftp'ed the complete tarball to the target machine and then ran gunzip and tar on it. The three files retained the correct case, and make install now works as advertised. Having got that sorted, I will be submitting a pr with a diff to update the port to mtools-3.8, which is the current release. Many thanks for your time and tolerance, - Ian Satoshi Asami wrote: > > * PLEASE IGNORE MY LAST MAIL!
