The following reply was made to PR ports/35907; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Garance A Drosehn <gad@gilead.acs.rpi.edu> To: Joe Marcus Clarke <marcus@FreeBSD.org> Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: ports/35907: Attempts to build mozilla fail (on current?) Date: Tue, 9 Apr 2002 22:42:39 -0400 I rebuilt an even larger number of ports on my freebsd-current, and still couldn't build mozilla. I then rebooted into my freebsd-stable machine, just to see if I can build it there (in general I am almost always running on my current system). I cvsup'ed my ports collection, and updated several ports which have nothing to do with mozillia, and that went fine. Then I tried to 'portupgrade -Rr mozilla', and that died complaining about some configuration problem when trying to rebuild ORBit. I force-rebuild my autoconfig ports, and also upgraded to the latest stable via buildworld/installworld. It still fails with a configure error. I tried rebuilding mozilla without doing ORBit, and that died with another configuration error (ie, not the same error that I get trying to build mozilla on my freebsd-current system). At this point, I'm afraid I'm going to say that I'm sick of the whole mess. I don't know what's wrong, but I've spent much more than 24 hours trying to rebuild things in a few dozen different ways, and mozilla just isn't worth that much of my time. Hopefully this problem is specific to my machine, and some day I'll figure out out or happen to rebuild whatever is broken. If you find something which DOES seem connected to the problem I'm seeing, please let me know. thanks. --- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.acs.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@FreeBSD.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy NY USA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-gnome" in the body of the message
