(build runs) . minerva,/usr/ports/textproc/ispell,123# pkg_update ispell-3.2.04_1.tgz Updating ispell packages to version 3.2.04 Can't open /var/db/pkg/ispell-3.2.04/+REQUIRED_BY, No such file or directory This happens even if the same package is run twice in a row (one would hope if the first pass cleanup encountered an error, it was cleaned by the first pass install). >How-To-Repeat: Execute pkg_update on a port built package. >Fix: Don't issue the error message if the +REQUIRED_BY is an optional component of the package database; otherwise, tweak the port build process to always create a +REQUIRED_BY component. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
