The following reply was made to PR ports/84937; it has been noted by GNATS. From: James Risner <risner@stdio.com> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org Cc: Subject: Re: ports/84937: 4.11 & hylafax port doesn't work Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2005 15:29:48 -0400 This problem may have been related to leftover files from the previous 4.x system before the upgrade. On some other 4.11 machines, I was able to make install hylafax without error. So, I went looking for the problem. The error was that it bailed on a line in "rules" that used gmake syntax. I had installed it by adding the makefiles I put in the pr report. Once I deleted all extra files on the system not part of a port (with this command and a manual inspect of each: find /usr/local /usr/X11R6 -type f -print0 | xargs -0 pkg_which -v | fgrep '?' ) and reinstalled every port (portupgrade -a -f), hylafax will now reinstall properly. I do not know what caused the failure, but removing old ports (pkg_delete automake, autoconf, libtool other than the latest) and removing old crud in /usr/local made the port work again. Risner
