i've managed to build packages for everything else on the system, and gettext seems to compile and install just fine, but for some reason, building the package fails: ===> Building package for gettext-0.14.1 Creating package /usr/ports/packages/All/gettext-0.14.1.tbz Registering depends: libiconv-1.9.2_1. Creating bzip'd tar ball in '/usr/ports/packages/All/gettext-0.14.1.tbz' tar: include/autosprintf.h: Could not stat: No such file or directory tar: lib/libasprintf.a: Could not stat: No such file or directory tar: lib/libasprintf.so: Could not stat: No such file or directory tar: lib/libasprintf.so.0: Could not stat: No such file or directory tar: share/doc/libasprintf/autosprintf.html: Could not stat: No such file or directory pkg_create: make_dist: tar command failed with code 256 *** Error code 1 now i understand what the error means, what i don't understand is why the error exists in the first place. if these files aren't created with the initial make, why is the packager trying to include them? and how do i fix this? -- What could it be, we're all doomed! who's flying this thing?!?!
