>Number: 829 >Category: ports >Synopsis: the lynx patches don't patch things correctly >Confidential: no >Severity: serious >Priority: high >Responsible: freebsd-bugs >State: open >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Mon Nov 20 00:10:01 PST 1995 >Last-Modified: >Originator: Donald Burr >Organization: none to speak of, really >Release: FreeBSD 2.0-BUILT-19950603 i386 >Environment: vanilla 2.0.5R system. lynx ports dir (from ports-2.1) and lynx2-4-2.tar.Z original tarfile, gotten today (20Nov95) from ftp.freebsd.org >Description: The FreeBSD patches fail to correct many irregularities in the libWWW Makefile's that BSD make can't grok. This results in many complaints from make, when trying to build the port, which ultimately fails. >How-To-Repeat: Just grab the lynx port dir and original tarfile from ftp.freebsd.org and try compiling it. >Fix: Get the file ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/incoming/lynx.replacement.patch-aa.gz gunzip it, and rename it to patch-aa, and put it in place of /usr/ports/net/lynx/patches/patch-aa Then re-run make and enjoy. This should, perhaps, be put into the ports dir on the FTP sites. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
