Well, running it here installs the expected files: ~> ls -l /local/lib | grep mowg lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 18 May 27 16:11 libmowgli.so -> libmowgli.so.2.0.0 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 18 May 27 16:11 libmowgli.so.2 -> libmowgli.so.2.0.0 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 84442 May 27 16:11 libmowgli.so.2.0.0 I would try running "make deinstall reinstall" from the port directory & working from there. Later: I deinstalled it, & the next time I ran "make install" from the port directory it claimed to install libmowgli, but installed nothing. "make deinstall reinstall" however worked. I have no idea why it did this. -- -- _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
