Seems to be a dependency. As far as I investigated the port's Makefile, gpatch should be fine, too. Instead of building the (g)patch utility, you could surely use pkg_add -r (g)patch to install it. I tried "make" in devel/patch and it seems to run well. Maybe you try to install (even build) patch prior to a new "make" attempt for eclipse. > And I do not know if it is important enough, but I want to use Eclipse > 3.5 As far as I checked, pkg_add will provide 3.4.? only at the moment. > And then I'll try to use the download of eclipse 3.5 If it runs on FreeBSD, there should be no problem. If it's a Linux binary, enable the Linux ABI which should make it run, too. > Thank you so far, > Coert Good luck! -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
