The french/mozilla-flp includes /usr/ports/www/mozex/Makefile.xpi, which has a dangerous technique for finding the name of the mozilla port - it picks the first directory under /usr/X11R6/lib that contains a mozilla-bin. But a poor user (such as myself :) may have put a backup copy of mozilla there, when having trouble updating it, under an arbitrary name. In my case, I had mozilla-gtk2 there dating from back when that was one of the mozilla portnames. But since /usr/ports/www/mozilla-gtk2 no longer exists, make index fails. mozex & french/mozilla-flp might also fail, but I didn't try them. (rm -rf /usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla-gtk2 allowed make index to complete.) Is there a reason INDEX and INDEX-5 are no longer updated ~ once a month? I don't recall hearing about it on -current or -stable, and don't subscribe to -ports. Will there be an INDEX-6? Thanks, Barney
