Okay, excellent. So, I should change my cvs-cvsupfile to read: *default release=cvs *default host=cvsup.au.freebsd.org *default base=/src/cvsup *default prefix=/usr *default delete *default use-rel-suffix *default compress *default tag=. ports-all does the 'tag=.' tell it to just update files that are already found locally? Is it possible that running cvsup as I did without the tag=. could have stuffed up my ports collection? It's just that I tried 5 different programs and they all failed... here's the output of `cd /usr/ports/misc/less ; make install`... su-2.03# make install ===> Patching for less-340 ===> Applying FreeBSD patches for less-340 Ignoring previously applied (or reversed) patch. 1 out of 1 hunks ignored--saving rejects to Makefile.in.rej *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. su-2.03# more ./work/less-340/Makefile.in.rej *************** *** 15,21 **** LDFLAGS = @LDFLAGS@ O=o - LIBS = @LIBS@ prefix = @prefix@ exec_prefix = @exec_prefix@ --- 15,21 ---- LDFLAGS = @LDFLAGS@ O=o + LIBS = -ltermcap prefix = @prefix@ exec_prefix = @exec_prefix@ Cheers Jesse -- Jesse Reynolds - Virtual Artists Pty Ltd - http://www.va.com.au Email: jesse (at) va.com.au - http://virtual.artists To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
