Hello All,
I am trying to install gnuchess but when I start the build process it errors out as follows.
----------------------------------------
tardis# make install clean
===> Vulnerability check disabled, database not found
===> Found saved configuration for gnuchess-5.07
===> Extracting for gnuchess-5.07
=> Checksum OK for book_1.01.pgn.gz.
/usr/ports/distfiles//gnuchess-5.07.tar.gz: No such file or directory
tar: Error opening archive: Empty input file: Inappropriate file type or format
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/games/gnuchess.

Hello, I attempted to install the port and recieved the same error as you. The current makefile does not grab the gnuchess.tar.gz, whenever WITH_OPENING_BOOK is specified, because EXTRACT_ONLY is misplaced underneathe of that section. Comment out that EXTRACT_ONLY line and underneathe the MASTER_SITE_SUBDIR line add the following two lines:
DISTFILES= ${PORTNAME}-${PORTVERSION}${EXTRACT_SUFX} EXTRACT_ONLY= ${PORTNAME}-${PORTVERSION}${EXTRACT_SUFX}
I suppose someone should submit a patch for this... -Aaron Myles Landwehr
