Hello again,
I have recently had some troubles adding programs via the ports collection.
What seems to be happening is that I make the port but it then doesnt work.
First is WordPerfect 8. I tried to install it originally as Corel recommended,
but that failed. I then tried to make it under the 3.1-Release ports (after
downloading the correct file) and it still failed. Here is the breakdown:
myname# make install
===> Installing for wordperfect-8.0
===> wordperfect-8.0 depends on file: /compat/linux/lib/libc.so.5 - found
This installation of WordPerfect will expire in 90 days,
unless you retrieve a free registration key from
https://livewire.corel.com/wp8LinuxReg/
to register your copy TODAY. Do this now!
The installation default directory /usr/local/lib/corel must be
accepted for installation to proceed correctly. If the installation
needs to be relocated, set PREFIX and restart the installation.
ln: remove.wp: File exists
Please Wait .ELF binary type not known. Use "brandelf" to brand it.

(tons of directories not found with this error:

Any information would be appreciated. Thanks
Neill
