That's definetely the cause of the crash. The patch below should guard against pkg_delete crashing. How this line got created in the first place, is very weird. I would run: grep -E '^@(pkgdep|name)[[:space:]]*$' /var/db/pkg/*/+CONTENTS Which would show all dependency lines and name directives that are empty. Maybe there's a common factor. For the moment my money is on linux-nvu as that would be the dependency that belongs at the empty spot: # make -C /usr/ports/print/acroread8 actual-package-depends | sort -u -t : -k 2 linux-atk-1.9.1:accessibility/linux-atk linux-glib2-2.6.6_1:devel/linux-glib2 linux_base-fc-4_13:emulators/linux_base-fc4 linux-cairo-1.0.2:graphics/linux-cairo linux-jpeg-6b.34:graphics/linux-jpeg linux-png-1.2.8_2:graphics/linux-png linux-tiff-3.7.1:graphics/linux-tiff hicolor-icon-theme-0.10_2:misc/hicolor-icon-theme acroreadwrapper-0.0.20080906:print/acroreadwrapper linux-expat-1.95.8:textproc/linux-expat linux-scim-libs-1.4.4:textproc/linux-scim-libs linux-nvu-1.0:www/linux-nvu linux-fontconfig-2.2.3_7:x11-fonts/linux-fontconfig linux-hicolor-icon-theme-0.5_1:x11-themes/linux-hicolor-icon-theme linux-gtk2-2.6.10:x11-toolkits/linux-gtk2 linux-pango-1.10.2:x11-toolkits/linux-pango linux-xorg-libs-6.8.2_5:x11/linux-xorg-libs -- Mel Index: plist.c =================================================================== RCS file: /home/ncvs/src/usr.sbin/pkg_install/lib/plist.c,v retrieving revision 1.52 diff -u -r1.52 plist.c --- plist.c 28 Mar 2007 05:33:52 -0000 1.52 +++ plist.c 18 Nov 2008 12:51:02 -0000 @@ -31,6 +31,11 @@ { PackingList tmp; + if( arg == NULL || arg[0] == '\0' ) + { + warnx("Invalid packing list line ignored"); + return; + } tmp = new_plist_entry(); tmp->name = copy_string(arg); tmp->type = type; @@ -61,6 +66,11 @@ { PackingList tmp; + if( arg == NULL || arg[0] == '\0' ) + { + warnx("Invalid packing list line ignored"); + return; + } tmp = new_plist_entry(); tmp->name = copy_string(arg); tmp->type = type; _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
