What Makefile? You're installing via packages, and by the time the package has been built, there's no more need for Makefiles... OK, that's just my misunderstanding about ports vs anything else In order to solve your problem, you can follow the instructions so helpfully printed out by pkg_add(1) and use the '-f' flag. That should work fine, as mod_php4 will fulfil the dependencies. well, i thought so originally, but there was always some flavor of conflict. But the answer to that is just a cvsup(1) away. i've already installed cvsup, and supposedly pulled down the ports collection, but .... it doesn't seem that anything is local, even after running cvsup. i broke down and installed the PEAR stuff manually ... it did the job, but isn't necessarily the optimum solution.
