>Description:
I installed the package for the ports collection (32upgrade.tgz) as
recommended. Now when building ports ${CHMOD} is null, so a make
install can randomly fail with a message like "640: command not found"
when it should be /bin/chmod 640 <somefile>
I believe this is the issue...I've had to hack several port makefiles
recently to add a value for ${CHMOD}. If this is too vague, tell me to
go get stuffed, and I'll get more detailed about it next time it happens.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install the ports upgrade package. Build a port that uses ${CHMOD}
in its makefile (the cyrus imap server is one). Notice that make install
fails with "640: command not found" or similar.
>Fix:
I'm not a make guru, but somewhere in there ${CHMOD} needs to get set.
