Hi Torfinn, The CVS commit in question says that the breakage was reported by pointyhat (FreeBSD package building cluster): http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/sysutils/xfce4-netload-plugin/Makefile#rev1.28 In fact, pav@ included the specific compiler error. I wonder if there was possibly a bug in the early 8.0 OS at that time (13 Jun 2009) that caused the build failure. If you are able to build and run successfully under 8.0 now, I suggest filing a PR with a patch to unbreak the port. Hope that helps, Greg - -- Greg Larkin http://www.FreeBSD.org/ - The Power To Serve http://www.sourcehosting.net/ - Ready. Set.
