similar to: issue with ports

I am running 4.8-STABLE. I recently did a cvsup (repeatedly, most recently today). Ever since, portupgrade dies with the following messages: zircon# portupgrade -r pkgconfig /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.6/pkgdb.rb:310:in `deorigin': failed to convert nil into String (PkgDB::DBError) from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.6/pkgdb.rb:903:in `tsort_build' from

Hi all, Having a bit of a problem with portupgrade on a -STABLE machine: [root@erwin]/root: portupgrade -aRn ---> Session started at: Tue, 27 May 2003 22:54:00 +1000 closed stream ---> Session ended at: Tue, 27 May 2003 22:54:01 +1000 (consumed 00:00:01) [root@erwin]/root: pkgdb -F does the same thing. Any clues? cheers, Rob [root@erwin]/root: uname -a FreeBSD erwin.number6

sorry to bother everyone but I've been pretty inactive lately. I just installed 5.1 release and I usually cvsup to stable but I'm not sure there is a stable version yet. should I bother with cvsuping? I have always followed the stable track.. This is for a firewall machine with simple rules running dns, samba, ftp, etc... Tony

Greetings, Well, I en devoured to install a copy of 7 as an effort to upgrade one of our servers. After installing a few ports, I began to notice: [: -le: argument expected messages being emitted during the configure/make process. I've already invested a fair amount of time on this upgrade, and /really/ don't want to wipe the disk(s) and start all over. This issue is not new to me - see

Sorry for the repost... I don't think the first one posted.. posted to freebsd.stable, freebsd-current, Freebsd-hardware I checked the hardware in the online documentation manual/hardware It only lists the bits and peices of the machine say the hard drive controller and so forth. but doesn't give you a particular system to look at as a working machine with FreeBSD 6.2 does anybody

Does the 6.1-BETA4-i386-disc2.iso contain only usr/share/doc, or for some reason i am unable to see anything else? I was looking for usr/src (and for a odd chance to have usr/ports); i suppose those two trees would be available somewhere on some disc for RELENG_6_1. I mounted the image as ... mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /path/to/6.1-BETA4-i386-disc2.iso -u 0 mount -t cd9660 /dev/md0 /mnt ...

Hello, When I run portupgrade -ra and PHP needs upgrading I am faced with having to select all the options I want PHP compiled with (again). I hate this. How can I continually compile PHP with the same options as the last time? Thanks! Rick

For those that may have run across the story on Slashdot about this NIC, here is our statement: Recently there were a few stories published, based on a blog post by an end-user, suggesting specific network packets may cause the Intel? 82574L Gigabit Ethernet Controller to become unresponsive until corrected by a full platform power cycle. Intel was made aware of this issue in September 2012 by

Cheers, Anyone seeing problems with the "make index" or the "portsdb -Uu" runs on 4.8-STABLE cvsupd today after 1PM CDT. Mine are quite borked up, and am trying to determine if the problems are local to my system. I have posted to the ports list earlier in the day also. Regards, Stephen Hilton nospam@hiltonbsd.com

Hello, My company has been asked to help with the upgrade of several Freebsd systems that are pretty old. The customer is running a file server samba also running apache running FBSD 4.2, he wants to upgrade using cvsup & the make buildworld procedure to upgrade to 5.x. Im very familier with the make buildworld procedure however there have been significant changes between 4.2 & 5.x so is

I''d like to clarify some points about the ports/package system in FreeBSD. I apoligize ahead of time if this is Both packages and ports use the pkgdb system. This isn''t some lame cludge; it''s by design, and the reason is really quite simple. Packages are built from the ports collection. The only real difference between them is the mode of delivery. When you run

Hi, I administer a postfix mail server on CentOS 6. Now I want to setup another with similar configuration. But the postgrey package is no longer available in Epel for this CentOS release as I have seen now: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/rpms/postgrey/ 1. Will I have to make an upgrade of the existing mail server to get security patches again or is it not critical to use

The included patch is what I''ve been able to throw together in a few hours after studying the pkgtools code. All I''m using the library for at the moment is to resolve the proper base location of the ports tree, but at least by invoking make directly instead of through portupgrade it works *a lot* better. Is there a proper way to include/require a third party ruby library?

Our current build process requires the directfb-1.4.11-3.el6.i686.rpm and directfb-devel-1.4.11-3.el6.i686.rpm packages, but they appear to be no longer available from the EPEL repo, and I can?t find them anywhere else either. If you have a local copy, or can point me to some other repo or web site that has these 2 RPMs, I would really appreciate it. Thanks, Alfred

/usr/ports/www/README.html went from some 200 lines to over 500 on a `make readme' in that directory just now. I thought `cvsup -g -L 2 /etc/cvsup_ports' would update the README.html files too. Should I be running `make readme' and/or `make index' (and/or anything else) myself after cvsupdating ports? -- Doug Lee dgl@dlee.org http://www.dlee.org Bartimaeus

Hi all, I''ve finally gotten around to releasing Facter 1.5. As the version bump implies, this is a relatively significant release (for a 2.3k line program, anyway). Mostly, the biggest change is refactoring the code internally so that all of the functionality is split into separate classes in separate files. Also, the facts are all loaded on-demand, which provides dramatic
