Hi all! I must say that during my investigation in the issue why Xaw3d won't build on my 2nd system I have learned quite a bit more on how the ports collection works. It's really neat stuff! But I still didn't actually find out what's causing my problem. Maybe you've been following this issue. I'll explain it again in short form. Also included below is a captured version of the (beginning) of the output I get when I try to make Xaw3d. After having successfully built Xaw3d on my first machine, I tried it on my second one, where it did not work. Both machines run 4.0-STABLE, updated last weekend. The second machine where the build of Xaw3d fails was again updated today (...thought that might solve the problem ;-). The only difference between the two machines is that the second machine with the problem had the 34upgrade.tgz package installed when it was STILL running 3.4-STABLE (I have now removed that package with pkg_delete -f). When I try to build and install Xaw3d on that machine, I get some strage message (see below) and I notice that while Xaw3d.a is present in /usr/X11R6/lib, while Xaw3d.so.6 is *not*. Here's what the first part of my building process looks like: tempest# make ===> Extracting for Xaw3d-1.5 >> Checksum OK for Xaw3d-1.5.tar.gz. ===> Xaw3d-1.5 depends on shared library: X11.6 - found /bin/mkdir -p /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/Xaw3d/work/xc/lib/Xaw3d/X11/Xaw3d cd /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/Xaw3d/work/xc/lib/Xaw3d/X11/Xaw3d; /bin/ln -sf ../../*.h . ===> Patching for Xaw3d-1.5 ===> Applying FreeBSD patches for Xaw3d-1.5 ===> Configuring for Xaw3d-1.5 imake -DUseInstalled -I/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config make Makefiles make includes $(_NULLCMD_) expands to empty string $(_NULLCMD_) expands to empty string $(_NULLCMD_) expands to empty string $(_NULLCMD_) expands to empty string + mkdirhier ./exports/include/X11/Xaw3d + cd ./exports/include/X11/Xaw3d + rm -f AllWidgets.h This output originates from the configuration process. But during both the build and install process, the message $(_NULLCMD)... repeats several times. I can only assume that this means that some string that comes from some file in /usr/share/mk (or somewhere else) is "not really there" for some reason. I hope that someone has maybe an assumption what's failing here... Greetings, Nils To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
