Here is the output: Making all in doc makeinfo --no-split -I . `test -f 'bison.texinfo' || echo './'`bison.texinfo -o bison.info bison.texinfo:37: Unknown command `copying'. bison.texinfo:58: Unmatched `@end'. bison.texinfo:93: Unknown command `insertcopying'. makeinfo: Removing output file `bison.info' due to errors; use --force to preserve. *** Error code 2 Stop in /usr/ports/devel/bison/work/bison-1.75/doc. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/devel/bison/work/bison-1.75. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/devel/bison/work/bison-1.75. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/devel/bison. I tried downloading and installing the package as well, but that gives the following error: pkg_add /usr/ports/packages/bison-1.75_2.tgz pkg_add: read_plist: bad command '@conflicts bison-1.8[0-9]*' I'm guessing something in the base system is too old to handle compiling this port? Cheers, Ian
