Are you installing from /usr/ports? Installing into /usr/local? Clearly, something odd is going on. While building llvm is big, I don't have to do it very often. Only when the port, itself, is updated. Anything in you environment that might be unexpected? When you run portmaster, you should get a list of ports to be installed and a request for confirmation that you want to proceed. Are you seeing this? Or, is the build of the port triggering the rebuild of the compiler. -- Kevin Oberman, Part time kid herder and retired Network Engineer E-mail: rkober...@gmail.com PGP Fingerprint: D03FB98AFA78E3B78C1694B318AB39EF1B055683 _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
