Thanks Adam,
that worked. How do you learn about something like that?
Simple answer: read the porter's handbook.
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/index.html
More explanatory answer:
Hopefully it'll help explain a good ports diagnostic process...
- From the log you gave, installing eterm made you build a dependency
which was already installed. If you build x, but the ports system
installs y, then y is a dependency of x. Part of the ports build is a
list of things that are required to make the port work. The eterm
Makefile has a list of libraries that eterm needs:
LIB_DEPENDS=Imlib2.1:${PORTSDIR}/graphics/imlib2 \
ast.1:${PORTSDIR}/devel/libast
ast.1 means look for the library libast.so.2. eterm also looks for
libImlib2.so.1. Get it?
Now, your log showed that your system built libast but it was already
installed. Here's a little diagram:
Build eterm - Port needs libast.so.1 - It doesn't exist - Install
libast - It's already installed - Barf.
So, there can only be one of two problems: either libast.so.1 DOES exist
and it's not being found (a transient linker error cuz you mucked with
/etc/make.conf or ldd), or the more likely possibility: libast.so.1
doesn't exist.
% monkey@smacky:~% pkg_info -L libast\*|grep \.so
/usr/X11R6/include/libast/socket.h
/usr/X11R6/lib/libast.so
/usr/X11R6/lib/libast.so.2
or:
% monkey@smacky:~% grep \.so /usr/ports/devel/libast/pkg-plist
include/libast/socket.h
lib/libast.so
lib/libast.so.2
There's the problem: libast.so is up to version 2. Fix what eterm is
looking for, and it'll stop digging in the wrong holes.
Summary:
If a port tries to install a package that's already installed, it's
looking for a wrong library version number, or a file that doesn't
exist. This usually happens because something is out of date. Find what
it's looking for, and find out what it SHOULD be looking for.
