libiconv problems
According to UPDATING, I should be able to do this to resolve issues with libiconv: pkg query %ro libiconv ports_to_update On my system, running 8.4 RELEASE with the old packaging system, this command doesn't do anything. I ran pkg_info to get a list of dependent apps and then piped that into xargs portmaster, but I got errors. # cat dependencies.txt | xargs portmaster === /var/db/pkg/Information does not exist === Aborting update === Killing background jobs Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated Terminated === Exiting So how can I fix this problem without updating to the new pkg system? -- Paul Schmehl (pa...@utdallas.edu) Senior Information Security Analyst The University of Texas at Dallas http://www.utdallas.edu/infosecurity/ ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

You don't. UPDATING says: AFFECTS: 10-CURRENT users with any port depending on converters/libiconv 8.4 not affected, according to the entry. All well and good, except for one problem: ls /usr/ports/devel/libiconv* ls: /usr/ports/devel/libiconv*: No such file or directory And yes my ports are current. -- Paul Schmehl (pa...@utdallas.edu) Senior Information Security Analyst The University of Texas at Dallas http://www.utdallas.edu/infosecurity/ ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

It's a typo, should say converters/libiconv. I've fixed it. -- Regards, Bryan Drewery ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
