They should all work. Certainly I build both ports and packages on -current with no drama at all. Is the -current system you're working with a -SNAP virgin install, or did you upgrade over an older (2.0.5, 2.1 etc.) release? Is there a pattern to these failures? Satoshi (ports-meister) builds them on -current regularly as a verification. From whence are you supping them? > Karl Denninger (karl@MCS.Net)| MCSNet - The Finest Internet Connectivity -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and (GSM mobile) 0411-222-496 [[ ]] realtime instrument control (ph/fax) +61-8-267-3039 [[ ]] Collector of old Unix hardware.
