I am unable to upgrade misc/help2man, required by autoconf and other ports that I want to upgrade that depend on perl and/or png.
Currently installed version of help2man is 1.40.12 and new version is 1.40.13 I get a bundle of error messages like Extracting help2man (with variable substitutions) ===>>> Creating a backup package for old version help2man-1.40.12 tar: lib/bindtextdomain.so: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/el/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/eo/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/fi/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/hr/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/pl/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/ru/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/sr/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/sv/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/uk/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/vi/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: share/locale/ja/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/de/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/el/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/eo/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/fi/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/fr/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/hr/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/it/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/pl/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/pt_BR/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/ru/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/sr/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/sv/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/uk/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/vi/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: man/ja/man1/help2man.1.gz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors. pkg_create: make_dist: tar command failed with code 256 So here I am stuck. I don't know whether the fault is with my installed help2man-1.40.12 or the distfile for 1.40.13. How do I get past this impasse? I suppose I could use "-x misc/help2man" in portmaster commands, but don't really want to do that if 1.40.13 is good but my installation of 1.40.12 is corrupted.
