Daily Ports+ #4: Some Issues and Its Workaround2008年01月20日 12時16分42秒

There are still some issues. Today, when I attempted to upgrade kdebase3, ports+ failed. I had hoped that one of bug fixes to make environment had fixed this bug. However, it apparently not.

Most of times, "make" programs are invoked recursively. BSD make and GNU make passes its argument and environment variables to its children processes differently. Specially, if GNU make calling BSD make, it becomes quite tricky. Some packages fails because of this difference, and more investigation is required.

Fortunately, there is a way to work around. If build spots with ports+, try what is failing with manual command. For example in today's case, do "cd x11/kdebase3 && make configure" and see what happens. I saw that few others failed with ports+ but did not by hand or portupgrade.

This is where I started.


# ports+ test
# upgrade openoffice.org-2.2.0 to openoffice.org-2.3.1_1
# upgrade kdebase-3.5.8 to kdebase-3.5.8_1

The number of packages need upgrade is a few. So, I specify each one with -make-config-recursive as these two have options.

# ports+ -make--config-recursive /var/db/pkg/openoffice.org-2.2.0 \
/var/db/pkg/kdebase-3.5.8 -j4 -k

===>  Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.
Please report the problem to kde@FreeBSD.org [maintainer] and attach the
"/ports/tmp/usr/ports/x11/kdebase3/work/kdebase-3.5.8/config.log" including
the output of the failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good idea
to provide an overview of all packages installed on your system (e.g. an `ls
/var/db/pkg`).
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/x11/kdebase3.

gmake: *** [/var/db/pkg/kdebase-3.5.8_1] Error 1

Kdebase3 failed on "make configure." Therefore, I run "make configure" out side of ports+.

# cd /usr/ports/x11/kdebase3/
# make configure

Good - your configure finished. Start make now

The configure script finished without errors this time. I can resume with ports+ from this point on.
