Try again, with a clean build, after having made sure that you've removed all remnants of the earlier icu versions; and make a transcript of the build: pkg_delete -fv "icu2-*" "icu-*" script /tmp/icu.log make -C /usr/ports/devel/icu deinstall clean install exit If the problem still occurs, then you should file a problem report: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/problem-reports/article.html Make sure you attach the config.log from the failed build (look for it in the work directory of the port before cleaning up), as well as the transcript (/tmp/icu.log) of the failed build. If there aren't any pre-built binary packages of the latest versions of icu and gimp available, and you don't want to wait for them to be produced, or for the problem to be fixed; and (as apparently is the case) the build is working, but only the post-build tests are failing; then first disable the tests and then try to build and install icu. You can do that by editing the port Makefile and commenting-out the following line: post-build test regression-test: iotest cintltst intltest (Of course, this change will probably be wiped out each time you update your ports tree.) b. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
