In fact, I just did: I'd read that FAQ, but having admin'd UNIX for ~10 years now I'm one of those who avidly preach against having '.' in PATH. :) However, it did seem to be related to PATH, so your diagnosis was basicly correct... I had simply done 'su' then began the install. That left me with my PATH, which while not containing '.' is more inclusive than root's. My path: PATH=:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/mike/bin After your suggestion, I simply hit ctrl-d and did 'su -' which gave me root's path (still no '.', but more stripped down): Root's path: PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin After the 'su -' freetype2 installed. Odd, no? Maybe it's something to do with how my path is built up in my .profile vs. the default root .profile. I do it somewhat round-a-bout, but haven't noticed it causing problems before, PATH=""; export PATH for i in { /bin /sbin /usr/bin /usr/sbin \ /usr/local/bin /usr/local/sbin \ /usr/X11R6/bin /usr/local/samba/bin $HOME/bin } do if [ -d $i ]; then PATH=$PATH:$i export PATH fi done The good news is I've sorted through most of the brokeness thanks to your help sorting out freetype2. (After that a few other problems went away too, including GTK2 and Pango.) Now I'm rebuilding the latest 1.3 Mozilla from ports... I tried installing the 1.2 binary package, but noticed it has an ORBit2 dependancy that 1.3 from ports doesn't seem to have. ORBit2 seems to die here (from ports) because libIDL-2.0 isn't installed. The odd thing is I don't see any mention of libIDL >= 0.8.0_1 in ports, despite the 1.2 Mozilla package seeming to require it. (?) So back to the 1.3 build and praying... > Maxim is on the GNOME team. We "share" freetype2 responsibilities > sometimes since it's so tightly integrated with GNOME. Well, thanks for the help... Most of the time portupgrade just works for me and I don't have many questions... From time to time, however, things seem to really break in ways I don't quite manage to comprehend. :) -mrh -- From: "Spam Catcher" To: spam-catcher@adept.org Do NOT send email to the address listed above or you will be added to a blacklist!
