| Here is what I should have done instead of removing ipv6 from the
makefile. This problem occurred because /usr/ports/Mk was out of sync with
the rest of my ports. The file /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk contains a list
of the valid categories. The latest version of the OpenSSH port needed a new
category, which didn't exist on my box. My version was out of date. Here's
what the updated version looked like:
VALID_CATEGORIES+= afterstep archivers astro audio benchmarks \
biology cad chinese comms converters databases deskutils \
devel editors elisp emulators ftp games german gnome \
graphics ipv6 irc japanese java kde korean lang \
mail math mbone misc net news \
offix palm perl5 plan9 print python russian \
security shells sysutils \
tcl76 tcl80 tcl81 tcl82 tcl83 textproc \
tk42 tk80 tk82 tk83 tkstep80 \
vietnamese windowmaker www \
x11 x11-clocks x11-fm x11-fonts x11-servers x11-toolkits \
x11-wm
I checked my ports-supfile. I don't use the ports-all
collection. Instead, I only only those ports which are imortant to me.
Unfortunately, I didn't know that ports-base one collection I
should alway update. It was commented out.
I enabled the ports-base collection and tried another
cvsup:
cvsup -P m ports-supfile
During this cvup, I noticed that the Mk collection was updated. To test that all
was well, I went back to the OpenSSH directory and added ipv6 back into the
Makefile. Then I did the following:
make deinstall
make
make install
And this time OpenSSH 1.2.1 installed just fine, thank you. |
