ticso@cicely5:/tmp# pkg_add -f -v png-1.0.9_1.tgz Requested space: 831096 bytes, free space: 13705216 bytes in /var/tmp/instmp.ijZaPY extract: Package name is png-1.0.9_1 extract: CWD to /usr/local pkg_add: extract_plist: unable to cwd to '/usr/local' Exit 2 The reason is that /usr/local is a softlink to an amd volume instead of a directory: ticso@cicely5:/tmp# ls -ald /usr/local lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 10 Nov 29 1998 /usr/local -> /vol/local ticso@cicely5:/tmp# ls -ald /usr/local/. drwxr-xr-x 41 root wheel 1024 Dec 21 21:05 /usr/local/. If I make /usr/local a real directory everything works fine, but that's something I don't want to do generaly when installing a package. -- B.Walter COSMO-Project http://www.cosmo-project.de ticso@cicely.de Usergroup info@cosmo-project.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
