Hi!
I'm trying to install x11/fbdesk and portupgrade does not do
anything.
pi# portinstall --verbose x11/fbdesk
---> Session started at: Wed, 27 Oct 2004 11:04:37 -0300
** None has been installed or upgraded.
---> Session ended at: Wed, 27 Oct 2004 11:04:41 -0300 (consumed 00:00:03)
I can confirm that this port hasn't been installed:
pi# pkg_version -v -s fbdesk
pkg_info: can't find package '*fbdesk*' installed or in a file!
pi# ls /var/db/pkg/f
fam-2.6.4/ fluxbox-devel-0.9.10/
fasta3-33.t08.d4/ fluxconf-0.9.4_2/
fastest_cvsup-0.2.8/ fontconfig-2.2.90_3/
fetchmail-6.2.5_2/ fping-2.4b2/
fftw-2.1.5_1/ freetype-1.3.1_2/
firefox-1.0.1.p_4/ freetype2-2.1.7_3/
flashplugin-mozilla-0.4.10_2/ frontline-0.5.4/
fltk-1.1.4/
What intrigues me is the lack of any useful message about it
(error, warn, whatever).
OTOH, doing a 'make clean && make install' in place is now
progressing as expected.
Why is it that portupgrade is not doing its job? I have run
'pkgdb -F' and the only errors I see are related to a couple
of ports I have installed that are not in the FreeBSD ports
tree and some dependencies of openoffice on xorg stuff (I
have XFree86).
