Dear Sir,
I tried your advice with the -R option, it worked, but for only pixman
the other ports that depend on it don't get rebuilt :(
I try to use -x 'texlive-*' but it does not work :(
I get
Could not execute shell
"/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk", line 1192: warning "/usr/bin/awk
'/^#define[[:blank:]]....FreeBSD_version/ {print $3}
</usr/include/sys/param.h" returned non-zero status
/usr/local/sbin/portmaster: rm: Argument list too long
and it justs sits there. Out of 3 machines only 1 is working because
I overlooked the pixman update entry in /usr/src/UPDATING :(
Please advice me as to how to get the desktop working again on these
machines. I did not want to shoot myself in the foot but I did so :(
Best Regards,
Antonio
