Dear FreeBSD,
Did something happen to the location for the "pkg-descr" so
that ports can't find it? The following happens to me a lot,
for many packages:
===> Installing for gmake-3.81_1
===> Generating temporary packing list
** Missing pkg-descr for gmake-3.81_1.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/devel/gmake.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/open-motif.
*** Error code 1
A workaround is to add this package with pkg_add -rv, but this
is tiresome, since I must do it many times to finish a complicated
port (this time the port is java/jdk15).
This happened on a new install of
FreeBSD poweredge.etaq.com 6.2-RC1 FreeBSD 6.2-RC1 #0: Thu Nov 16 05:12:08
