(A cursory browse of the OpenBSD : Alpha source tree confirmed they don't have this file either.) I don't : know if there's been some sort of BROKEN_ALPHA flag invented yet, but this : port is a strong candidate for that if it becomes the case. NetBSD and OpenBSD both have ONLY_FOR_ARCHS - If a port only makes sense to certain architectures, this is a list containing the names for them. It is checked against the predefined ${MACHINE_ARCH} value >From looking at the last bsd.port.mk file that I have on my system, it appears that this isn't present in FreeBSD yet. For the moment, the best way to fix this is to add something like: .if ${MACHINE_ARCH} != "i386" BROKEN="Only for APM enabled Intel machines" .endif to the Makefile for the port.
