gnome_upgrade.sh & Firefox
Hello all, A few days ago, I noticed that some Gnome-related items were ready to be updated (I CVSup'd the Ports tree) (such as gnomehier), so I thought why not use gnome_upgrade.sh and update everything. It did without any problems. It finished this morning. After finishing, I updated the Ports tree again and noticed that some new Gnome-related items were ready to be updated as well (gtk for example). So, I figured why not run it again. I did and it bombed on Firefox. Any ideas? I checked /usr/ports/UPDATING as well as the Mailing Lists. I figured there is an incompatibility with one of the items updated in Ports during the last 2 days (since Firefox built just fine 2 days ago). The last 100 lines of the error that gnome_upgrade told me to print as well as uname are below. Thanks for your help. ast# uname -a FreeBSD ast.home.iq 5.4-STABLE FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE #0: Sun May 29 10:30:27 EDT 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/IQKERNEL i386 ast# cat /etc/make.conf CPUTYPE?=p3 CFLAGS= -O -pipe NO_BLUETOOTH=true CUPS_OVERWRITE_BASE=yes NO_LPR=true NOPROFILE=true # added by use.perl 2005-03-24 18:07:16 PERL_VER=5.8.6 PERL_VERSION=5.8.6 ast# tail -n 100 error.txt cc -o jsopcode.o -c -DOSTYPE=\"FreeBSD5\" -DOSARCH=\"FreeBSD\" - DEXPORT_JS_API -DJS_USE_SAFE_ARENA -I../../dist/include/js -I../../ dist/include -I/usr/ports/www/firefox/work/mozilla/dist/include/nspr -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include -I. -I/usr/X11R6/include -fPIC -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/ include -I/usr/X11R6/include -Wall -W -Wno-unused -Wpointer-arith - Wcast-align -Wno-long-long -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe - march=pentium3 -pipe -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -O -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/ usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/X11R6/include - include ../../mozilla-config.h -DMOZILLA_CLIENT jsopcode.c jsparse.c cc -o jsparse.o -c -DOSTYPE=\"FreeBSD5\" -DOSARCH=\"FreeBSD\" - DEXPORT_JS_API -DJS_USE_SAFE_ARENA -I../../dist/include/js -I../../ dist/include -I/usr/ports/www/firefox/work/mozilla/dist/include/nspr -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include -I. -I/usr/X11R6/include -fPIC -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/ include -I/usr/X11R6/include -Wall -W -Wno-unused -Wpointer-arith - Wcast-align -Wno-long-long -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe - march=pentium3 -pipe -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -O -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/ usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/X11R6/include - include ../../mozilla-config.h -DMOZILLA_CLIENT jsparse.c jsprf.c cc -o jsprf.o -c -DOSTYPE=\"FreeBSD5\" -DOSARCH=\"FreeBSD\" - DEXPORT_JS_API -DJS_USE_SAFE_ARENA -I../../dist/include/js -I../../ dist/include -I/usr/ports/www/firefox/work/mozilla/dist/include/nspr -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include -I. -I/usr/X11R6/include -fPIC -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/ include -I/usr/X11R6/include -Wall -W -Wno-unused -Wpointer-arith - Wcast-align -Wno-long-long -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe - march=pentium3 -pipe -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -O -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/ usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/X11R6/include - include ../../mozilla-config.h -DMOZILLA_CLIENT jsprf.c jsregexp.c cc -o jsregexp.o -c -DOSTYPE=\"FreeBSD5\" -DOSARCH=\"FreeBSD\" - DEXPORT_JS_API -DJS_USE_SAFE_ARENA -I../../dist/include/js -I../../ dist/include -I/usr/ports/www/firefox/work/mozilla/dist/include/nspr -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include -I. -I/usr/X11R6/include -fPIC -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/ include -I/usr/X11R6/include -Wall -W -Wno-unused -Wpointer-arith - Wcast-align -Wno-long-long -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe - march=pentium3 -pipe -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -O -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/ usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/X11R6/include - include ../../mozilla-config.h -DMOZILLA_CLIENT jsregexp.c jsscan.c cc -o jsscan.o -c -DOSTYPE=\"FreeBSD5\" -DOSARCH=\"FreeBSD\" - DEXPORT_JS_API -DJS_USE_SAFE_ARENA -I../../dist/include/js -I../../ dist/include -I/usr/ports/www/firefox/work/mozilla/dist/include/nspr -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include -I. -I/usr/X11R6/include -fPIC -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/ include -I/usr/X11R6/include -Wall -W -Wno-unused -Wpointer-arith - Wcast-align -Wno-long-long -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe - march=pentium3 -pipe -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -O -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/ usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/X11R6/include - include ../../mozilla-config.h -DMOZILLA_CLIENT jsscan.c jsscope.c cc -o jsscope.o -c -DOSTYPE=\"FreeBSD5\" -DOSARCH=\"FreeBSD\" - DEXPORT_JS_API -DJS_USE_SAFE_ARENA -I../../dist/include/js -I../../ dist/include -I/usr/ports/www/firefox/work/mozilla/dist/include/nspr -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include -I. -I/usr/X11R6/include -fPIC -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/ include -I/usr/X11R6/include -Wal

Hello, Have you tried watching the wifi session in debug mode and see if it's erroring somewhere? (i.e. their WiFi network doesn't like your laptop since it's running *BSD, I know that my starbucks connection doesn't like my laptop sometimes). It could also be that the WiFi network is scanning for the WiFi client on the machine, and when it doesn't find it - it won't allow it to log on. -- Jonathan -- Jonathan M.

You can run it to see what configuration is possible with the src you are building, but that's what port does, it's a frontend to it (correct me with wrong). If you want to build manually the src you need to run "./configure --args" like "./configure --with-mysql --with-zlib" for php in example, and after the configure script run OK you do "make install" to make and install the program.

Re: SMP and networking under FreeBSD 5.3
I'm still learning the firewall thing. I didn't understand the 'me' clause until recently. I'm using it on my UP box. My router actually runs off a cdrom. Its hard to make changes to it :-). Its an SMP box. It wouldn't help telling you my ip addresses anyway, because my system is internet IP -> nat(dsl modem) -> nat(lan). I have no idea what my real ip address is on the internet. In any case, thanks for the advice. I've been thinking of redoing these rules for 2 years now. So how would your rules look if nat were in the picture?

Out of curiosity, if I were to optimize for i686 as opposed to Pentium 3, would that help fix the problem (and if so, what kind of speed difference would there be)? Is there even much of a speed bump using this march setting or is it just not worth having at all? I noticed that several compiles in there used the -O2 optimization which I did not specify, so I know that the Port uses some custom optimization; could these also be a culprit?

This doesn't work all the time, as the port *may* do some additonal magic just to get port to build. YMMV. Some ports don't even have a `configure' script. The best place to look for supported options is in the Makefile. The porter has already done the hard work. If you want to know more about the port, you should ask the maintainer of the port or the list.

The problem is that Palm in it's infinite stupidity does not support any of the standardized calendar syncing formats. And your also confused because the ical on a Mac isn't the same thing as IETF's standard RFC2445 spec iCAL. Palm claims support of ical for their handhelds but they are talking about the ical application on a Mac. They aren't talking about the standards-based RFC, which is what Horde and all the other calendaring applications support. Please see the following for enlightenment: http://zgp.org/pipermail/linux-elitists/2004-January/008663.html http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Apps/scheduling.html About the only thing that the OP can do is sync to Palm Desktop on a 'doze box then export the calendar from that comma-delimited then suck that into Horde.

I use deskutils/phpicalendar. iCal on my Mac is able to sync with it. There are several out there. Another that I have used is Web Calendar, http://www.k5n.us/webcalendar.php.

And your also confused because the ical on a Mac isn't the same thing as IETF's standard RFC2445 spec iCAL. Uhh, I have not tried to interoperate but Apple iCal uses .ics files when publishing or sending invites. Those seem to be the same as your RFC 2445 spec iCAL. Your linuxmafia link below even shows this... Palm claims support of ical for their handhelds but they are talking about the ical application on a Mac. They aren't talking about the standards-based RFC, which is what Horde and all the other calendaring applications support. Now, palm may synch directly to the Apple iCal data and not to an ics file, I don't know, so in that way you would be right. But Apple iCal seems to use the "standard" iCAL format for communications.

For example, I don't want to remove Perl > > obviously which is a dependency of sqwebmail. > I guess pkg_delete -r is not what he asked for since it well deinstall all those depending on the given package/port. He wants to einstall all those required by the given package/port. for example gmake-3.80_2 # pkg_info -r gmake-3.80_2 Information for gmake-3.80_2: Depends on: Dependency: libiconv-1.9.2_1 Dependency: gettext-0.14.4_1 # pkg_delete -r gmake-3.80_2 This well only remove gmake-3.80_2 but not what gmake depends on to run (libiconv and gettext) and to build (libtool) There are alos build dependenies that would not be removed since they are only required to build the package/port but not to run it (libtool for example is required to build gmake but not to run it). I use portupgrade and its tools to install/remove packages/ports. for example if I want to remove gmake and all it's 'RUN' dependencies (libiconv and gettext) # pkg_deinstall -iR gmake This well prompt for each step to remove gmake and ports needed to run it but libtool well not get removed or asked for to be removed since it is not required to run gmake. There are many tools in /usr/ports/sysutils that well help you remove packages/ports not required to run allready installed ports/packages. pkg_cutleaves pkg_rmleaves portmanager portupgrade My favorite all is portupgrade since it has many utilities for example pkg_deinstall Try to install portupgrade then # pkg_deinstall -iR sqwebmail the -i option request confirmation for each package removal The -R option Deinstall all those required by the given packages as well. Aftrer removing sqwebmail it well ask you to remove - courier-authlib-base-0.56 - ispell-3.2.06_13 as well perl and/or other dependencies so don't forget to answer with "no" for packages you need. -- Kind regards Abu Khaled ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
