FALSE=true, huh? That's classic. That won't have any side-effects? I'm no ports expert, but shouldn't this check occur _after_ fetching? Then, if the make target was just to fetch, no error. If the make target was a build, then the port gets fetched, _then_ the error occurs. Which is fine since the admin will probably want to fix the problem anyway, and the download won't need repeated. I noticed that the Makefile simply says "WANT_PHP_WEB=yes" which would seem to indicate that fixing this would fix the same problem for any number of PHP ports. -- Bill Moran Collaborative Fusion Inc. _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
