That's an incredibly ugly solution; if the vpx port were installed correctly, it would have been detected, so you're probably just hiding a real problem. > Then after issuing a make install, this comes up everytime: > > [Snip] > a ./searchplugins/yahoo.xml > a ./dictionaries/en-US.aff > a ./dictionaries/en-US.dic > a ./defaults/pref > a ./defaults/pref/channel-prefs.js > a ./chrome/icons > a ./chrome/icons/default > a ./chrome/icons/default/default16.png > a ./chrome/icons/default/default32.png > a ./chrome/icons/default/default48.png > /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/mozilla-release/config/nsinstall -D > /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/fake/bin > rm -f -f /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/fake/bin/firefox > ln -s /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/fake/lib/firefox/firefox > /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/fake/bin > gmake[1]: Leaving directory > `/usr/ports/www/firefox/work/mozilla-release/browser/installer' > echo 'share/applications/firefox.desktop' >> > /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/plist_files > echo "@dirrmtry share/applications" >> > /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/plist_dirs > echo 'share/pixmaps/firefox.png' >> /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/plist_files > /bin/mkdir -p /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/fake/libdata > /bin/mv -f /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/fake/lib/pkgconfig > /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/fake/libdata/ || true > mv: rename /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/fake/lib/pkgconfig to > /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/fake/libdata/pkgconfig: No such file or > directory > /bin/rm -f /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/fake/lib/pkgconfig > cd: can't cd to /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/fake/include > *** Error code 2 > > Stop in /usr/ports/www/firefox. > *** Error code 1 > > Stop in /usr/ports/www/firefox. > > All the fixes I googled that could relate to this, date back to 2005 the > latest,, and none of them helped. > > I've been trying to fix this for 2 days now and I'm not getting anywhere so > I can only hope someone can shed a light on this problem here on the list.. > > My sincere thanks to whoever points me a direction. You've done something really weird (in particular, the "work/fake" directory would not exist or be referenced in a normal ports installation). Try emptying your /etc/make.conf and starting from scratch. Good luck.
