I have hit another snag in updating ports that depend on png. Portmaster seems to go into an infinite loop or keep looking for a long time, producing monstrous log files:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 72138 Oct 2 03:18 /BETA1/usr/ports/build-png.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 8060 Oct 19 02:36 /BETA1/usr/ports/build2.cmd -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 351911 Oct 19 02:37 /BETA1/usr/ports/build2.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 8052 Oct 19 02:41 /BETA1/usr/ports/build2b.cmd -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 8063 Oct 20 03:47 /BETA1/usr/ports/build3.cmd -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 377896 Oct 19 02:50 /BETA1/usr/ports/build3.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 7913 Oct 20 04:42 /BETA1/usr/ports/build4.cmd -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 2573873 Oct 20 04:15 /BETA1/usr/ports/build4.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 7186 Oct 21 04:45 /BETA1/usr/ports/build5.cmd -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 13451651 Oct 20 07:37 /BETA1/usr/ports/build5.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 7150 Oct 25 07:07 /BETA1/usr/ports/build6.cmd -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 757204321 Oct 25 03:04 /BETA1/usr/ports/build6.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 129655234 Oct 25 07:18 /BETA1/usr/ports/build7.log That last one, build7.log, only took ten minutes to get that large! Logs, too big to post here, suggest a dependency loop, and I ran make all-depends-list | more in both devel/doxygen and audio/jack directories, and the result for devel/doxygen showed devel/doxygen, the result for audio/jack showed audio/jack . I also tried make all-depends-list | more in print/hplip directory, and print/hplip did not show. I remember a circular dependency bug in the recent past with devel/doxygen and audio/jack, so that's where I looked, especially after finding these ports repeatedly in my monster-sized logs. Portmaster, when it fails, ends the log with a note to resume by running portmaster <flags> <list of ports separated by spaces, all on one line>. So I separate out that part and edit as necessary with vi: that's how I got my build?.cmd files.
