Subject:   'portupgrade' problem: "fnmatch module not found (runtime error)" -  (another try)
Message-ID:  <JMEJIDBCLMMNOALABHFFIEGNCNAA.craig@CheetahUSA.net>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
currently running FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE (alpha/axp). Fresh (re)install
of portupgrade, but running 'pkgdb -F' fails with
  /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.6/pkgtools.rb:9: fnmatch module
  not found (RuntimeError)
        from /usr/local/sbin/pkgdb:35:in `require'
        from /usr/local/sbin/pkgdb:35

I have --
ruby-1.6.6 [many of these files are living in
      /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.6/alpha-freebsd4/]
ruby-fnmatch-1.1b_1 (installed as a seperate port)
      [/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.6/alpha-freebsd4/fnmatch.so]

I tried making a symbolic link in
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.6/alpha-freebsd4/ to fnmatch.so but the same
error occurs.

If this sounds familiar, back around the middle of January RAY
KOHLER made some suggestions as I tried to resolve the problem.
Once upon a time portupgrade actually did work - several months
ago - and before I tried unsuccessfully to install mod_ruby.

Does anybody know where the fnmatch module is expected to be for
portupgrade? and maybe what to change so it works?

thanks,

craig
