portupgrade
Dear all, I have observed the following behavior in portupgrade: The operation portugrade -a results in a repetitive rebuild of the package database whenever the database is accessed. [Updating the pkgdb format:dbm_hash in /var/db/pkg ... Inappropriate file type or format - /var/db/pkg/pkgdb; rebuild needed] [Rebuilding the pkgdb format:dbm_hash in /var/db/pkg ... - 435 packages found (-0 +435) ... done] --- Backing up the old version [Updating the pkgdb format:bdb1_btree in /var/db/pkg ... Failed `Inappropriate file type or format'; rebuild needed] [Rebuilding the pkgdb format:bdb1_btree in /var/db/pkg ... - 435 packages found (-0 +435) ... done] --- Uninstalling the old version [Updating the pkgdb format:dbm_hash in /var/db/pkg ... Inappropriate file type or format - /var/db/pkg/pkgdb; rebuild needed] [Rebuilding the pkgdb format:dbm_hash in /var/db/pkg ... - 435 packages found (-0 +435) .. Is this a bug or a feature ? What can be done to suppress this behavior of portupgrade -a ?

Re: portupgrade
No, I upgraded to 6.0 a couple of days after it was released. That must have been eight or nine months ago ... m: Colin Percival [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Arno Schleich [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: portupgrade Date: Sat, 06 May 2006 14:37:45 -0700 Arno Schleich wrote: portugrade -a results in a repetitive rebuild of the package database whenever the database is accessed.

Re: portupgrade
Thanks, that improved the behavior. What I don't understand though is why upgrading individual ports e. g. portupgrade xyz never resulted in that problem ...

Try doing pkgdb -fu (without the quotes), if that doesn't work rename or rm /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db and run the command again to build a new pkgdb. Beech -- --- Beech Rintoul - Sys.

Re: glib20
Hi, thanks for all Your replies. None solved the problem, but all contributed a bit to the eventual solution. pkg_delete -rf pkgconfig* cvsup -L2 all-ports cd ports/x11/gnome2 make clean make install clean restored things to sanity (apart from the usual build inconsistencies). This was the solution proposed on www.freebsd.org/gnome for a different but structurally related problem. Thanks for all Your efforts wrt to this issue.

Re: glib20
Kris, thank You for Your advice. I already had tried that before writing to the list. make deinstall and make install clean for glib-2.10.2 do not change anything. The same error in the configuration script kept recurring in a pretty monotonous fashion. Tried gnomelogalyzer - but it cannot the determine the reason of build failure. ldconfig -r shows the library is in the loader path yet applications using it fail at runtime. Gnome desktop and some applications keep working, albeit very slow ... Btw, how can get parts of it somehow deleted by executing automated scripts. This seems like a big glitch in the system akin to the infamous blue screen ... To be honest, it doubt this is the origin of my problem. I had also tried to deinstall glib-2.10.2 and have an application which depends on it install it while the dependencies are resolved. This installed glib-2.10.2 perfectly but failed to configure the build of the application as above. Thanks for the thought, but I'd still be thankful for a more definitive suggestion as to how to solve this problem.

Re: glib20
the gnomelogalyzer, available from http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/gnomelogalyzer.sh;, which will diagnose the problem and suggest a solution. If - and only if - the gnomelogalyzer cannot solve the problem, report the build failure to the FreeBSD GNOME team at [EMAIL PROTECTED], and attach (a) /mnt/TrekStor120G/ports/databases/evolution-data-server/work/evolution-data-server-1.6.1/config.log, (b) the output of the failed make command, and (c) the gnomelogalyzer output. Also, it might be a good idea to provide an overview of all packages installed on your system (i.e. an `ls /var/db/pkg`). Put your attachment up on any website, copy-and-paste into http://freebsd-gnome.pastebin.com, or use send-pr(1) with the attachment. Try to avoid sending any attachments to the mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), because attachments sent to FreeBSD mailing lists are usually discarded by the mailing list software. *** Error code 1 Stop in /mnt/TrekStor120G/ports/databases/evolution-data-server. *** Error code 1 Stop in /mnt/TrekStor120G/ports/mail/evolution. -- Thanks !
