It failed on me with a message about not beeing able to find libgettext. It took me some time to find out why. I had an /usr/X11R6/bin/xgettext installed (additionally to the /usr/local/bin/xgettext from the gettext port) As I had /usr/X11R6/bin in the path before /usr/local/bin, the configure script picked the wrong version, and failed. The wrong version was installed by the xview-3.2.1 - port. (it then continues to output a config.log file which has nothing to do with the failure which is misleading at best) Here is the error: [running configure in work/ORBit-0.5.4/popt/] checking for GNU xgettext... configure: error: *** GNU gettext is required. The latest version *** is always available from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gettext/. configure: error: ./configure failed for popt ===> Script "configure" failed: here are the contents of "config.log" This file contains any messages produced by compilers while running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake. [outputting the config.log from work/ORBit-0.5.4/config.log] >How-To-Repeat: install xview port PATH=/usr/X11R6/bin:${PATH} build ORBit port >Fix: either change xview to not install xgettext, or specify the path in ORBit exactly >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
