on a 4.10-STABLE system on an old celeron 400 laptop, i have XFree 4.4: ~ > ls /var/db/pkg/X XFree86-4.4.0_1,1 XFree86-font75dpi-4.3.0 XFree86-FontServer-4.3.0_2 XFree86-fontCyrillic-4.3.0 XFree86-NestServer-4.4.0 XFree86-fontDefaultBitmaps-4.3.0 XFree86-PrintServer-4.4.0 XFree86-fontEncodings-4.3.0 XFree86-Server-4.3.0_10 XFree86-fontScalable-4.3.0 XFree86-VirtualFramebufferServer-4.4.0 XFree86-libraries-4.4.0_1 XFree86-clients-4.3.0_3 XFree86-manuals-4.4.0 XFree86-documents-4.4.0 Xaw3d-1.5 XFree86-font100dpi-4.3.0 Xft-2.1.2 but when i try to start a xterm in X, i get: /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libexpat.so.4" not found, required by "xterm" but libexpat is actually installed: /var/db/pkg/expat-1.95.8 when i build any port, i get: ===> Vulnerability check disabled, database not found at the beginning of make. i don't know if that's related. so i want to try portupgrade -a after pkgdb -F returns no error and my ports tree updated. portupgrade produces no output and seems to be stuck in a loop. so i repeatedly hit ps ax | grep ports to see what it's doing and here is what i get: sidewinder# ps ax | grep ports 93129 v1 S+ 0:00.01 sh -c cd /usr/ports/audio/cdparanoia && make -V PKGNA sidewinder# ps ax | grep ports 93158 v1 S+ 0:00.01 sh -c cd /usr/ports/audio/esound && make -V PKGNAME 2 sidewinder# ps ax | grep ports 93187 v1 S+ 0:00.00 sh -c cd /usr/ports/audio/libaudiofile && make -V PKG sidewinder# ps ax | grep ports 93216 v1 S+ 0:00.00 sh -c cd /usr/ports/converters/libiconv && make -V PK sidewinder# ps ax | grep ports 93245 v1 S+ 0:00.01 sh -c cd /usr/ports/devel/ORBit2 && make -V PKGNAME 2 sidewinder# ps ax | grep ports 93274 v1 S+ 0:00.01 sh -c cd /usr/ports/devel/autoconf253 && make -V PKGN sidewinder# ps ax | grep ports 93297 v1 S+ 0:00.01 sh -c cd /usr/ports/devel/automake15 && make -V PKGNA sidewinder# ps ax | grep ports 93341 v1 S+ 0:00.01 sh -c cd /usr/ports/devel/fam && make -V PKGNAME 2>/d sidewinder# ps ax | grep ports 93370 v1 S+ 0:00.01 sh -c cd /usr/ports/devel/gconf2 && make -V PKGNAME 2 sidewinder# ps ax | grep 330 v1 S+ 0:00.01 sh -c cd /usr/ports/multimedia/gstreamer-plugins && 508 v1 S+ 0:00.33 make PARENT_CHECKED=/usr/ports/devel/gmake /usr/ports 517 v1 S+ 0:00.00 /bin/sh -ec checked="/usr/ports/devel/gmake /usr/port 518 v1 S+ 0:00.01 /bin/sh -ec checked="/usr/ports/devel/gmake /usr/port 563 v1 R+ 0:00.09 make PARENT_CHECKED=/usr/ports/devel/pkgconfig /usr/ sidewinder# ps ax | grep ports 330 v1 S+ 0:00.01 sh -c cd /usr/ports/multimedia/gstreamer-plugins && 508 v1 S+ 0:00.33 make PARENT_CHECKED=/usr/ports/devel/gmake /usr/ports 517 v1 S+ 0:00.00 /bin/sh -ec checked="/usr/ports/devel/gmake /usr/port 518 v1 S+ 0:00.01 /bin/sh -ec checked="/usr/ports/devel/gmake /usr/port sidewinder# ps ax | grep ports 330 v1 S+ 0:00.01 sh -c cd /usr/ports/multimedia/gstreamer-plugins && sidewinder# ps ax | grep ports 330 v1 S+ 0:00.01 sh -c cd /usr/ports/multimedia/gstreamer-plugins && 776 v1 R+ 0:00.00 /usr/bin/grep -qwv /usr/ports/dev as i'm writing this it's been running 45 minutes. ports names seem to come back. is that normal ? how long should i leave portupgrader speechless before i consider it crashed ? how do i fix my ports tree ?
