It gave at least eight "could not find bsd.port.{pre,port}.mk" errors, and you didn't think to upgrade your /usr/share/mk to fix that? Fetch the sources using src-all in your supfile or another method of your choosing, upgrade /usr/share/mk by doing 'cd /usr/src/share/mk; make install'. -- Ben Smithurst ben@scientia.demon.co.uk send a blank message to ben+pgp@scientia.demon.co.uk for PGP key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
