Well, no error messages, but I can't find it. So I decided to install it using make install in /usr/ports/games/3dc. I got the message that it was already installed, and I followed the suggestion to run make deinstall and then make reinstall. All went fine, except that I can't find it. Running find /usr -name "3dc" -print says "SURE it exists, as a directory in /usr/ports/games!" And no module named 3dc exists in my $PATH, which seems to be in order. What am I doing wrong? Even pkg_info says that it is installed, but I can neither find it nor run it. Pb To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
