hello,

I am having a problem with using make install ANY of the downloaded ports (and 
the ports I already have).

This is the error:

===============
# make install
"/usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk", line 2: Could not find /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk
make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue  
===============

I have copied over "/usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk" to /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk 
but that does not work.
I also seems to  but a circular call. I am not sure what is going on here.


If anyone can offer any advice I would be grateful.

Many thanks

Ruth Bamford
