Hello,
I have inherited an old FreeBSD 5.1 machine(5.1-RELEASE-p18). I realize
that the short answer to my question is more than likely to upgrade the
OS to a current release and I would if I had that option right now, but
I do not. I needed to upgrade the perl/openssh/openssl implementation on
this box. My first thought was to use the port on the machine that was
from that era but make fails. So then I thought to csup the ports tree
and try with a new version, that fails as well. The error is as follows:
make config
"/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk", line 1780: warning: String comparison
operator should be either == or !=
"/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk", line 1780: Malformed conditional
((${OSVERSION} >= 700007 || ${OSVERSION} < 700000))
"/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk", line 1780: Missing dependency operator
"/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk", line 6276: if-less endif
"/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk", line 6276: Need an operator
make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue
I even tried to run portmanager -s to see what condition all the ports
were in and that same failure showed up:
portmanager -s

The very first thing I did in all this was to upgrade perl to 5.10. The
upgrade was successful but the rebuild of the perl dependent ports was not:
portupgrade -fr perl
[Updating the pkgdb <format:bdb_btree> in /var/db/pkg ... ** Stale lock
file was found. Removed.
- 25 packages found (-1 +1) (...). done]
** Makefile possibly broken: mail/cyrus-imapd2:

In that last piece I see that the initial offender is cyrus-imapd2 but I
see those "/usr/ports/Mk.bsd.port.mk" lines as errors in other ports...
I am not sure if this is just caused by the cyrus port, make in general
or something inherently broken in that 5.1 install. Any help to
resolving this is appreciated.
