OK...one more time, since I seem to stumble on this every couple of
years. If any of the TeX related environment variables are defined
when you build this port, it causes the install target to hang. For a
list of these, see the definition of envvars in
${PREFIX}/bin/texconfig. It'd be real nice if the port checked for
these before building.
Also, for those trying to render documentation project files in PDF or
PS, one also needs to reinstall the print/jadetex port.
Another note: The sizes of various tables as encoded in
${PREFIX}/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf seem to be somewhat larger than
before. This might make the admonitions in
ports/print/jadetex/pkg-message obsolete (in fact, some of the tables
are now larger than what jadetex asks for). Not sure how this affects
building documents. I'm running some tests against the release
documentation now...will report more if anything interesting shows up.
Bruce.
