portmanager modifying bsd.port.mk

2009-03-08 Thread Chuck Robey
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I'm busy trying to use portmanager to get me to kde4.2, but I'm having problem in updating my misc/localedata port. Portmanager has decided misc/localedata needs to get rebuilt, and for some reason, that it needs to patch my /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port/mk

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I can't figure out why (because the Makefile sure seems fine) but whenever I try to install the phonon-xine port, it comes back and tells me it doesn't: make: don't know how to make install. Stop I can't see anything about the port that would do this
