Re: [Mimedefang] Installing on FreeBSD
Hi, ===> Generating temporary packing list [: based: unexpected operator -e: not found *** Error code 127 Stop in /usr/ports/mail/mimedefang. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/mail/mimedefang. I can see the perl modules (including spamassassin) when I do a pkg_info -a now. But mimedefang isn't in there (probably because the make install failed).

This is getting complicated ... Have you ever updated a freebsd system ? Looks like your port collection is not up to date. Install the package cvsup (the package, not the port). To do that type 'sysinstall', go to 'Configure', 'Packages'. If you have installed from cd, enter that cd. Under 'devel' you'll find a tool called 'cvsup-without-gui'. Install this one. After that, upgrade your system to FreeBSD 4.11, please read the handbook how to do that. The upgrade the ports collection with cvsup too. After that go to '/usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade', do a 'make install'. Now you can just do a portupgrade mimedefang, and everything needed should be updated now.

Re: [Mimedefang] Installing on FreeBSD
Hi,
I'm getting a lot closer now than I was! I reinstalled perl using what I
found in ports, then I went to /usr/ports/mail/mimedefang and did a make
(that worked) it installed all of the perl modules needed by mimedefang. A
make install in /usr/ports/mail/mimedefang fails though like this:
===> Generating temporary packing list
[: based: unexpected operator
-e: not found
*** Error code 127
Stop in /usr/ports/mail/mimedefang.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/mail/mimedefang.
I can see the perl modules (including spamassassin) when I do a pkg_info -a
now. But mimedefang isn't in there (probably because the make install
failed). I do have /var/spool/MIMEDefang and /var/spool/MD-Quarantine and
/usr/local/etc/mimedefang/mimedefang-filter so mimedefang is at least
partially installed. I doubt it's installed enough to be actually working
though since the make install failed and it does not show up in pkg_info -a.
Any ideas on how to fix the make install for mimedefang?
Thanks,
Lisa

Hi Lisa,
"Makefile", line 53: Malformed conditional (${PERL_LEVEL} < 500601)
the port system expects that perl is installed also
from the ports system
either do:
cd /usr/ports/lang/perl5.8
make install
make clean
or edit /etc/make.conf and add (adjust the perl version)
PERL_VER=5.8.1
PERL_VERSION=5.8.1
PERL_ARCH=mach
and after that do:
cd /usr/ports/mail/mimedefang/
make install
make clean
Hope that helps.

pkg_add works with binary packages (like RPMs). Packages have a ".tgz"

So I moved the tarball over to /usr/ports/distfiles, extracted it and ran
make. That resulted in:

You're doing 2 things wrong: 1) you're runing a BSD make against a GNU
Makefile. 2) you're not using the ports. Do as I said above and you'll have
mimedefang installed in no time.

At this rate it'll be forever before I get mimedefang installed and in the
meantime I have customers upset because they are receiving unacceptable
levels of spam. Surely someone can help me out with installing mimedefang
from source and getting this sendmail stuff I have questions about working.
Of course, if someone wants to tell me what I'm doing wrong in trying to
install this as a package and howe to do it right, that would be OK too :-)
I'm going to CC this to the FreeBSD list in case someone on that list
might
be able to help.

Hi lisa,
You should use the port system to install it on freeBSD, think of it
like the rpm for redhat... :)

Me too.
But I don't seem to be able to do that, and I do know how to install
source files.
When I try to do a pkg_add to install the mimedefang port that I've
downloaded from freebsd.org, I get this:
pkg_add installs package (a pre-compiled binary), not port.
radius# pkg_add -r mimedefang.tar.gz

`ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-
4-stable/Latest/mimedefang.tar.gz.tgz' by URL
I have rarely, if ever at all, used pkg_add (I prefer ports), but I
don't think that using argument 'mimedefang.tar.gz' is correct.
So I moved the tarball over to /usr/ports/distfiles, extracted it and
ran make.
If you have decided to install from source tarball, you should perform
the installation outside the ports tree.
That resulted in:
radius# more distinfo
MD5 (mimedefang-2.51.tar.gz) = 9c4df4ec349e414f893c940ff563bea5

You are probably trying to run BSD make against a GNU makefile. If you
really want to install from source tarball, use gmake.
At this rate it'll be forever before I get mimedefang installed and in
the meantime I have customers upset because they are receiving
unacceptable levels of spam. Surely someone can help me out with
installing mimedefang from source
At this stage I'd still recommend using ports. Just read 'man ports', as
well as Section 4.5 of the Handbook, to get your confusion cleared up :-)
