Hi, all-- The ports INDEX build apparently fails due to this: 90-list# cd /usr/ports/devel/activitymail && make describe "Makefile", line 22: Could not find /usr/ports/devel/p5-Module-Build/inc.build.mk make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue The port also fails portlint: 91-list# portlint "Makefile", line 22: Could not find /usr/ports/devel/p5-Module-Build/inc.build.mk make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue FATAL: Makefile: CATEGORIES left blank. set it to "misc" if nothing seems apropriate. FATAL: Makefile: PORTVERSION must be specified WARN: Makefile: COMMENT should begin with a capital, and end without a period 2 fatal errors and 1 warnings found. It seems to me that depending on "make describe" to work for each and every port for the INDEX build to succeed is not especially fault-tolerant; the result of "make index" gets truncated about 10% of the way through the process (INDEX is 1367 lines long) with the current error. Would something like this help: --- Makefile~ Mon Jan 26 14:53:32 2004 +++ Makefile Tue Feb 10 13:31:06 2004 @@ -72,7 +72,7 @@ @echo -n "Generating ${INDEXFILE} - please wait.."; \ export LOCALBASE=/nonexistentlocal; \ export X11BASE=/nonexistentx; \ - cd ${.CURDIR} && make describe ECHO_MSG="echo > /dev/null" | \ + cd ${.CURDIR} && make -k describe ECHO_MSG="echo > /dev/null" | \ perl ${.CURDIR}/Tools/make_index | \ sed -e 's/ */ /g' -e 's/| */|/g' -e 's/ *|/|/g' -e "s,$${LOCALBASE},/ ...? I'm giving it a try now to see whether I get ~10K lines in the resulting INDEX. -- -Chuck
