After hours of head-banging over the past couple of days, I have finally succeeded in installing EITHER xorg-clients-6.8.2_1 OR xterm-206_1. Previously, installing either port told me that it conflicted with the other, in spite of having cvsupped my ports tree twice to ensure I was getting the most recent version of the ports, hopefully including a fix to the chicken-and-egg problem noted in /usr/ports/UPDATING
Once I spotted an odd bit of output in the portupgrade dialogue, I made a change to xorg-clients Makefile which allowed everything to install. pkgdb -F afterwards and all my dependencies are tidied up. May I suggest the following patch to /usr/ports/x11/xorg-clients/Makefile: --- Makefile Sun Nov 13 21:47:34 2005 +++ foo Tue Nov 15 19:19:37 2005 @@ -18,7 +18,7 @@ MAINTAINER= [EMAIL PROTECTED] COMMENT= X client programs and related files from X.Org -RUN_DEPENDS= xterm>0:${PORTSDIR}/x11/xterm +RUN_DEPENDS= xterm:${PORTSDIR}/x11/xterm LIB_DEPENDS= png.5:${PORTSDIR}/graphics/png \ Xft.2:${PORTSDIR}/x11-fonts/libXft _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
