When building /usr/ports/lang/guile, the build exited with an awk 'internal error' and a log on the console that awk had exited on signal 6. To test my theory that the problem was indeed awk (rather than the guile port), I copied over a copy of awk from a 4.1-R system. After doing so, the guile port was able to build and install without any problems. Here is the output from the make build: PATH=.:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin :/usr/X11R6/bin:/root/bin ./guile-doc-snarf eval.c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.. -I./.. -I../libltdl -O -pipe -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes eval.c > eval.x || { rm eval.x; false; } awk: ./guile-snarf.awk:17: (FILENAME=- FNR=9680) fatal error: internal error Abort trap - core dumped *** Error code 1 Regards, Tony. #include ".sig" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
