While John E Hein was trying to figure out why data written to

he gave up and decided to grace us with this:

That explains that.

Well now I'm in more trouble I think.  I attempted to do a
portupgrade and it went through all the proccesses of deinstalling
the 7.1-5 and proceeded to make the 7.1-7, then it failed with:

execution of glibc-2.2.4-33 script failed, exit status 0
**** error code 1.

But it deinstalled and instead of what usually happens on a
portupgrade it reinstalls the older version, however this did NOT
happen and pkg_info now shows NO linux_base.

There are no linux_base entries in /var/db/pkg.  I figured I'd just
check to make sure pkg_info wasn't lying :-)

Does this mean I'm regressing ? :-).

I'll attempt to install the package for 7.1-7 and see if I can
get back to some semblance of order.

No.  That all that I get is the script failed.

I don't have anything in make.conf that would preclude that.  The
only thing I normally don't build is cvsup-without-gui and I
typically just put that in as a package to save all the ruby build
time.

I'll investigate that - after I see how the installing the
linux-base package works.

Thanks.
