Hello everyone,
I'm new to the ports mailing list, and indeed rather new to UNIX/FreeBSD.
I like working with WPS Office (the Writer application) due to it being rather
compatible with Amazon KDP, which is Amazon's self-publishing platform. I'm
used to running WPS Office on Windows and tried to install it on FreeBSD14.0. I
tried an install on both the VMWare Player virtual machine and my old Lenovo
Thinkpad W700 laptop. Using pkg, I could not locate WPS Office and hence I have
used git to download the port tree and attempted my first "compile from from
source." [1]
Being in the proper ports directory, I do:make install clean
I have recorded the compilation process using tee on the Thinkpad W700; myriad
"stop errors" crop up and the compilation process is halted.
> Stop.
> make[8]: stopped in /usr/ports/devel/bsddialog
> *** Error code 1
>
> Stop.
> make[7]: stopped in /usr/ports/devel/bsddialog*** Error code 1
The full compilation process is recorded in wps.txt, attached to this email. I
did not want to paste the full content as this would hinder the readability of
this email.The errors are located at the very end of the text file and hence,
should you have the patience and will, they may be found there and you will not
have to pass through the whole text file.
As a newbie, I seem to understand it is mostly about missing libraries, and
would appreciate advice as to what to do, and if this can simply be resolved by
using pkg to install the myriad needed libraries; my neophyte eyes are still
quite dyslectic to the messages returned in the myriad UNIX processes, please
bear with me :-).
I hope WPS Office will be made available as a binary package via pkg.
I had asked the general FreeBSD mailing list the question presented here, but
was recommended to contact the people subscribed to this list.
I hope that my neophyte position has not unintendedly transgressed against some
mode of conduct expected in this mailing list; I have tried other sources of
information prior to resolving this problem, including analysing the attached
wps.txt file with AI, but the AI started reasoning in circles; and trying to
understand the nature of some of the missing dependencies. As a beginner, I'm
often still confronted with jargon beyond my level. Someone suggested I might
try porting the latest Linux version of WPS Office with Poudriere-devel; but I
think this will remain beyond me for a while to come.
I do have the Linux compatibility layer enabled.
Thank you for your patience and expertise,
J.

You may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install this port again
by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.
If you really wish to overwrite the old port of bsddialog
without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
in your environment or the "make install" command line.
