'Lo. I've come up against an infuriating problem with ports. I don't even know what causes it, let alone how to solve it.
Essentially, to stop already-installed software from polluting port builds, I build ports in a jail. I put a list of ports in a file and use a trivial shell script to build them one after the other with: cd $port make clean make deinstall make package-recursive The jail is set up with: /etc/make.conf: WRKDIRPREFIX= /work DISTDIR= /distfiles PACKAGES= /pkg PORTSDIR= /ports With /ports, /distfiles and /pkg being mounted from outside the jail using nullfs (just because those directories exist on a ZFS array outside of the jail for performance reasons). Before building a set of packages, the jail is wiped clean with 'pkg_delete -a'. The problem is that it seems most ports just outright fail to produce packages. I log each build and often the last lines of the log files read something like: xchm: tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/ChangeLog: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/calstblx.dtd: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/catalog: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/catalog.xml: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/dbcentx.mod: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/dbgenent.mod: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/dbhierx.mod: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/dbnotnx.mod: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/dbpoolx.mod: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/docbook.cat: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/docbook.dcl: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/docbook.dtd: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/docbookx.dtd: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/soextblx.dtd: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/sgml/docbook/4.2/README: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors. pkg_create: make_dist: tar command failed with code 256 Creating package /pkg/All/docbook-4.2.tbz Registering depends: iso8879-1986_2 xmlcatmgr-2.2.

And so on and so on. What's the problem here? It surely shouldn't be this hard to use 'make package'. The system is a vanilla install of FreeBSD 8.0 AMD64 with an up-to-date ports tree as of yesterday. xw _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
