Okay : to upgrade the port system, I typed :

portupgrade -all

(I suppose it has the same effect than using cvsup, no ?)

But, I still encounter problems with XFree86 (it's the first package which is downloaded) :

XFree86-4.4.0-src-1.tgz doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/xc.

Couldn't fetch it - please try to retrieve this

*** Error code 1

Well, okay :

cd /usr/ports/distfiles/xc
tar -xvzf XFree86-4.4.0-src-5.tgz
[...]
cd xc/fonts/scaled

There is no makefile, just a file named "IMakefile" (why ?)

mv IMakefile Makefile
make

"Makefile", line 33: Missing dependency operator
"Makefile", line 34: Missing dependency operator
make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue

What should I do ? I'm a bit lost :)

Thank you !

A.R.

Thank you Ben

I don't understand where is the problem : when I "ask" freeBSD to install mozilla, sources and makefiles are downloaded from Internet - they should be up to date, no ?

Not necessarily; you must update the "skeleton" files yourself using a utility like CVSup.



Anyway I'll try to use your command. Thank you very much.

Regards,

A.R.

For a quick fix you could try "pkg_add -r XFree86-fontScalable", this will download and install the pre-compiled binary. When was the last time you CVSup'd?
