Hi, Ok, the short question:
How can one debug the ports tree make process (or any make process for that matter)? Specifically what I want to be able to do is 'dump' to STDOUT the values contained in macros within a Makefile - something like this in a Makefile: # New ports collection makefile for: php4-cli # Date created: Tue Feb 18 11:17:13 CET 2003 # Whom: Alex Dupre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <snip> WITHOUT_APACHE= yes # How do I dump the value contained in WITHOUT_APACHE here? echo WITHOUT_APACHE (which of course doesn't work!) Obviously in this example the value contained in WITHOUT_APACHE is obvious, but in other Makefile's where there are more than 2 or 3 nested .if .else .endif clauses, it can be hard determining which macros contain what values. What is the best way of debugging make targets? Ok, now the long question!: I'm having a problem with the new php4 make process in as much as I want to install mod_php4 using one set of options / --with-* args and php4-cli with another set of options. I've created two distinct OPTION_FILE's as recommended in /usr/ports/lang/php4/Makefile: # The last way reads an "extension" file, located in ~/php_options (the # location is overridable by the OPTION_FILE variable). You may find an # example in scripts/php_options (interactive mode only). and named them 'php_options.cli' and 'php_options.mod_php4', each file containing the options for cli and mod_php4 respectively. I then proceed to set an env variable using: setenv OPTION_FILE php_options.mod_php4 and then: (after removing old mod_php4 port) cd /usr/ports/www/mod_php4 make clean install (check all the options are correct, they are) All well and good, mod_php4 is installed as expected. However I then go on to: setenv OPTION_FILE php_options.cli and then: cd /usr/ports/lang/php4-cli make clean make (check all the options are correct, they are) and I receive this error on the install target: make install ===> Installing for php4-cli-4.3.2 ===> php4-cli-4.3.2 conflicts with installed package(s): mod_php4-4.3.2,1 They install files into the same place. Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1). *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/lang/php4-cli. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/lang/php4-cli. Can anyone confirm whether they have installed both the cli and mod_php4 versions of php4 from the FreeBSD ports, and if so how they achieved it?
