I built the science/py-scipy port. Comparing the build logs, it seems to me that sage completely builds the scipy subpackage. And then python crashes. So somehow the problem is not with scipy as such. You could just take out the error handling in the script spkg-install inside build/pkgs/scipy. That would be rather dangerous, but it might provide for a temporary work around the problem. To be honest, I am finding FreeBSD-10 to be quite a pain. It is something of a moving target. One of my other ports now fails, where it seems it used to build under FreeBSD-10 quite successfully. If any of you have good insights, I would appreciate it. But I may not be able to spend a lot more time hunting down this bug until next summer. And I would prefer to wait until FreeBSD-10.1 is rolled out, and things are more stable. _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
