Hi Clifton, The output from "make deinstall" in "/usr/ports/comms/cdce-1.0" : "make : do not know how to make deinstall. Stop."
I had originally installed the port in "/usr/ports/comms/cdce-1.0" from a tarball downloaded from gank.org then did another installation in "/usr/ports/comms/cdce" with a tarball from freebsd.org, which contained the patch. I did "make deinstall" and "make clean" first in "/usr/ports/comms/cdce" which ran successfully but then encountered the problem above in "/usr/ports/comms/cdce-1.0" . Now I am totally confused as to what to do next. how do i remove the entire "cdce" installation and rebuild from scratch? A million thanks for your help On 5/12/05, Clifton Royston <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Thu, May 12, 2005 at 10:40:29AM +0800, Zhiliang wrote: > > Hi Clifton, > > > > Thanks...i tried that but did not have any effect...would l need to > > copy revised Makefile into the directory as well? > > No, but you do need to run "make deinstall" to safely remove the > installed version and then "make clean" to remove your first attempt to > build it.
