Isnt 4.6.2-RELEASE later than 4.6-STABLE? well, it's my understanding that it's 4.6-STABLE until 4.7-PRERELEASE, at which point it hits 4.7 RELEASE and goes into 4.7-STABLE. > Looking through the Makefile, I see that the patch that I applied was > not applicable to my version of FBSD (should probably reverse it)... > The Makefile does list a patch for 4.6.2 > (http://people.freebsd.org/~mbr/patches/rtld-elf-patch3.diff), but I > applied that. did the patch actually work, though? curious for my own uses. a somewhat more obvious notice that a patch is required (like something in the pkg-message) would have been helpful to know ahead of time. it's been awhile since i tried to build openoffice, but i don't seem to recall getting any message about it when the install failed.. looking through a makefile that large for something so specific isn't usually something i do! i usually look for options (i.e. -WITH_SVGALIB=YES kinda stuff) or gnome-specific things that i don't want. perhaps i'll give it a go this afternoon..my girlfriend will be happy to know whether or not it works, since she just made the switch to freebsd from win2k (round of applause?). in any case, it seems you actually helped me out in pointing out such a small thing that i overlooked..and in turn, answered your own question. - erik To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
