I have a problem building ports on 2 of my machines. This problem is new, and occured on each machine (at different times) following a problem with the ports database. Maybe I screwed up the database? Anyway, here's what I get: ===> Installing for gettext-0.12.1 ===> Generating temporary packing list ===> Checking if devel/gettext already installed *** Error code 1 This happens on any port build on both machines. On one machine I've been able to force installs using: portinstall -f <insert port path here> This seems to only work on only one machine though. I'd really like to be able to cure this problem on both machines. Any clues? (Running FreeBSD-5.0 CURRENT on both machines) Thanks, Erick Smith
