I get the following message: #make install There is a COMMENTFILE in this port. COMMENTFILEs have been deprecated in favor of COMMENT variables. Please, rectify this. *** Error code 1 Stop. I read somewhere (google search) that a ports collection update would fix this problem. I can't seem to get to update my ports without CVS. installed the ports and src tree from the CD, but that still did not help. Why is this error occurring and where does it originate from. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks. dm
