Mike Hogsett, who's instructions on upgrading are about as clear as you could hope for. Thanks for taking the time! Now, I'm in the process, like John Bleichert, of doing a portupgrade on things, and I've run into a problem. I can't seem to get libiconv (whatever that is!) to upgrade. Here's the tail end of the make. I can see why it is complaining, because there certainly isn't a './autoconf' in my /usr/ports directory. Just for giggles, I installed autoconf, but that didn't help. There is a ./autoconf/mkinstalldirs in the Work directory for libiconv-1.8, though. But I'm just doing a portupgrade... Ooops, wait a minute, let me check something out ...... Yup, that's the problem. I was doing a: portupgrade -m -j10 libiconv Where the "-m -j10" passes the -j10 to the make, which set the number of jobs make will try to do at one time. I read somewhere that if you have a multi-CPU machine like I do, to try it with -j10. It has worked up til now, but it seems to break the make for libiconv. Should I post this as a bug somewhere? It works fine without it. =3D=3D=3D=3D Cut here =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D test -f /usr/ports/converters/libiconv/work/libiconv-1.8/lib/charset.alias= &&= orig=3D/usr/ports/converters/libiconv/work/libiconv-1.8/lib/charset.alias= || orig=3Dcharset.alias; sed -f ref-add.sed $orig >= /usr/ports/converters/libiconv/work/libiconv-1.8/lib/t-charset.alias;= install -c -o root -g wheel -m 444= /usr/ports/converters/libiconv/work/libiconv-1.8/lib/t-charset.alias= /usr/ports/converters/libiconv/work/libiconv-1.8/lib/charset.alias; rm -f= /usr/ports/converters/libiconv/work/libiconv-1.8/lib/t-charset.alias /bin/sh ./autoconf/mkinstalldirs= /usr/ports/converters/libiconv/work/libiconv-1.8/lib ./autoconf/mkinstalldirs: Can't open ./autoconf/mkinstalldirs: No such= file or directory *** Error code 2 1 error *** Error code 2 1 error *** Error code 2 1 error ** Command failed [exit code 2]: /usr/bin/script -qa /tmp/portupgrade3695.0= make -j10 ** Fix the problem and try again. ** The following packages were not installed or upgraded (*:skipped /= !:failed) ! converters/libiconv (libiconv-1.7_2) (unknown build error) -- Jonathan Arnold (mailto:jdarnold@buddydog.org) The Incredible Brightness of Seeing, a Home Theater weblog http://jdarnold.tzo.com/HomeTheater To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
