No errors are on record for building editors/emacs according to pointyhat/portsmon: http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portoverview.py?category=3Deditors&portname=3D= emacs&wildcard=3D Therefore I diagnose something specific to your system is broken. Unfortunately your report is too lacking in detail to be able to say anything useful that might help you to fix the problem. We'd need to see= * Your choice of options for the port (ie. 'make showconfig' output) * A complete build log showing the problem occurring. (ie 'make clean build' output) * The config.log from $WRKSRC showing what autoconf did. That should give a fighting chance of being able to work out what's wrong= =2E Cheers, Matthew --=20 Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 7 Priory Courtyard Flat 3 PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Ramsgate JID: matthew@infracaninophile.co.uk Kent, CT11 9PW --------------enig962358629D3F5396247779AE Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.16 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk6i+esACgkQ8Mjk52CukIz4CwCfTYEYNYTu+FmchOrq5ZAdjyzd CeYAn176AcwiBy7KZ/uNORRa08IXVWfy =YwJo -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig962358629D3F5396247779AE--
