Commit db5b5f1 on Mar 6, 2021. mfechner_at_freebsd.org shows on the commit. It added the following 2 lines to devel/thrift-cpp/pkg-plist : lib/cmake/thrift/ThriftConfig.cmake lib/cmake/thrift/ThriftConfigVersion.cmake The same overall commit also added those lines to each of: devel/thrift-c_glib/pkg-plist devel/thrift/pkg-plist (Actually this is the creation of this pkg-plist file, it previously did not exist.) The conflicts have existed across the 3 since then. Someone on discord was trying to use both devel/thrift and devel/thrift-cpp , where devel/thrift-cpp would be in use in a way that uses what devel/thrift installs. The person having the problem also reported: QUOTE thrift-cpp-0.16.0_5 cmake has if( TRUE AND ON ) while thrift has if( FALSE AND OFF ) on line 83 for libevent dependency, otherwise they're identical. END QUOTE Who? "WrinkledCheese". === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com
