This was a fresh install of 7 from a couple of months ago when it
was -current. I have been updating
src, ports, or both?
It was a clean install. I backed up my data and did a new install from
a snapshot iso. I reinstalled all 3rd party software from ports.
Ok.
What happens if you just run 'pkg_create -b <portname
from /var/db/pkg>'? I strongly suspect that this is a problem with
your pkg_create binary, since that's all portmaster is doing in that
spot. If the pkg_create command failed then you would see an error
message and portmaster would exit.
Okay, I just did that from my /root directory and it worked.
Well, that's good news I suppose. Please install the latest (1.24)
version of portmaster, and try again, with and without the -B flag and let
me know how it goes.
Thank you for responding. Does this mean that I alone am experiencing
this problem?
Yes.
One other thing, I replaced my video card last week with an NVIDIA
card. I installed the nvidia port which brought in linux ports and
compat5x. Could this have messed up my libraries?
Highly unlikely, but thanks for mentioning it.
