Alex, are you saying that "make index" did not run to completion, even with many error messages? I cvsup ports daily and use the portupgrade tools such as portversion, so I like to have an up to date INDEX. I have always gotten several error messages such as the one you posted. But it does build the INDEX. -- Scott Lambert KC5MLE Unix SysAdmin lambert@lambertfam.org http://www.lambertfam.org/~lambert/resume.html
