The install target in the makefile calls rpm to install the RPM-format package files, but the bash package mysteriously fails to install. Turning on debugging for rpm give no useful info. Has anybody seen this? I'm running 3.2-RELEASE, but with an up-to-date /usr/ports. order# make install ===> Installing for linux_base-6.1 setup-2.0.5-1.noarch.rpm filesystem-1.3.5-1.noarch.rpm basesystem-6.0-4.noarch.rpm ldconfig-1.9.5-15.i386.rpm glibc-2.1.2-11.i386.rpm termcap-9.12.6-15.i386.rpm libtermcap-2.0.8-18.i386.rpm bash-1.14.7-16.i386.rpm execution of script failed error: /usr/ports/distfiles/rpm/bash-1.14.7-16.i386.rpm cannot be installed *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. order# To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
