Do to some recent problems I had to re-install a few times. I started w/ 2.1.5R CDROM. I then used cvsup (tag=. and ports-all) to update my ports collection to -current. Some of the ports I attempted to make gave me errors of certain files not found. I figured this problem was caused by using and older release to compile the newer ports. So, I then cvsup'ed to 2.2-GAMMA and added ports-all to my new cvsup "supfile" (tag=RELENG_2_2). I then did make world and rebuilt my kernel. Everything looked fine here. Make world completed fine and so did building the new kernel. Now when I attempt to build any of the ports the system can't find any of the Makefiles. I checked a few of the ports and I couldn't find any Makefiles. When I attempt to build any of the ports, I keep getting: bash# pwd /usr/ports/sysutils/xperfmon bash# make install make: don't know how to make install. Stop bash# What's the best way to correct this? Here's a copy of the my cvsup supfile (I used the example in the on-line handbook): *default tag=RELENG_2_2 *default host=cvsup.FreeBSD.org *default prefix=/usr *default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup *default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress ports-all src-all cvs-crypto Thanks in advance.
