>Description:
When trying to install the port using "portupgrade cdk" (from sources):
===> Compressing manual pages for cdk-5.0.20050424,1
/bin/sh:Argument list too long
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/devel/cdk.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/devel/cdk.
** Command failed [exit code 1]: /usr/bin/script -qa /tmp/portupgrade.30763.0 env PORT_UPGRADE=yes make -DFORCE_PKG_REGISTER reinstall
---> Restoring the old version
** Fix the installation problem and try again.
[Updating the pkgdb <format:bdb1_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... - 218 packages found (-0 +1) . done]
** Listing the failed packages (*:skipped / !:failed)
! devel/cdk (cdk-5.0.20050424,1) (install error)
---> Packages processed: 0 done, 0 ignored, 0 skipped and 1 failed
** Could not clean up temporary directory: Directory not empty - /var/tmp/portupgrade3sKhJUvT
Also, but the port doesn't seem to react to these variables:
NO_INSTALL_MANPAGES=yes
NOMANCOMPRESS=yes
It still tries to install and compress manpages.
The side effect of the absent manpages: annoying error messages in the output of "weekly":
Rebuilding whatis database:
makewhatis: /usr/local/man/man3/Beep.3: No such file or directory
makewhatis: /usr/local/man/man3/CDKallocStrings.3: No such file or directory
.. etc
>How-To-Repeat:
portupgrade -f cdk on a FreeBSD-5.x branch (I am not sure about 6.x)
>Fix:
I contacted the maintainer (MrL0Lz _at_ gmail.com) back in April 2006.
According to him - "This a known issue with the 5.X branch"
The patch suggested by him (replacing -pdm with -pdmu in post-install section of the Makefile) does not work. I did not have any further response.
