Hey Alex, It appears when MK_LLVM_BINUTILS is set, a strip binary/link doesn't get installed. So /usr/bin/strip doesn't exist. This causes a problem when building packages since even ports-mgmt/pkg relies on strip. I'm working on a candidate patch to fix this right now. But if you beat me to the punch, all the better. ;-) Thanks, -- Shawn Webb Cofounder / Security Engineer HardenedBSD https://git.hardenedbsd.org/hardenedbsd/pubkeys/-/raw/master/Shawn_Webb/03A4CBEBB82EA5A67D9F3853FF2E67A277F8E1FA.pub.asc
