I'm running 2.2.5-RELEASE, btw.
I just cvsupped again (from cvsup2.freebsd.org, which i always use).

make completes without a problem, but then...

So then i edit work/fetchmail-4.5.2/Makefile
BTW, Line 72 seems to have the order mixed up a bit. Shouldn't INSTALL=
come before INSTALL_DATA, which depends on INSTALL ?
It fails because line 140 starts with ${INSTALL_SCRIPT}, which is blank
(line 70). So it tries executing ./fetchmailconf (current dir is
work/fetchmail-4.5.2), which starts off with "#!/usr/bin/env python", which
causes the Error Code 1.
So I edit the makefile, comment out line 140, and move line 72 up to line
68 (and shift current line 68 down one).
Then cd back to /usr/ports/mail/fetchmail and make install again.
# make install
...
Installing fetchmail configurator...
Installing manual page...
/usr/bin/install -c -o bin -g bin -m 644 ./fetchmail.man

install -d -m 555 -o bin -g bin /usr/local/share/doc/fetchmail
-sf fetchmail.1.gz /usr/local/man/man1/fetchmailconf.1.gz
-sf: not found
*** Error code 1
Stop.
This appears to be happening in /usr/ports/mail/fetchmail/Makefile, line
38 ("${LN} -sf fetchmail.1.gz ${PREFIX}/man/man1/fetchmailconf.1.gz"). So I
replace ${LN} with /bin/ln.
# make install
...
mv: rename /usr/local/bin/fetchmailconf to
/usr/local/libexec/fetchmailconf.biny
*** Error code 1
Stop.
Ok. Fails on line 43. Probably because I commented out line 140 above,
preventing there from being a /usr/local/bin/fetchmailconf. So I comment
out line 43.

And it works...

I guess it hasn't been, unless cvsup2 is behind on the ports.
