Re: Cdce Patch

2005-05-12 Thread Zhiliang
Hi Clifton,

The output from make deinstall in /usr/ports/comms/cdce-1.0 :
make : do not know how to make deinstall. Stop.

I had originally installed the port in /usr/ports/comms/cdce-1.0
from a tarball downloaded from gank.org then did another installation
in /usr/ports/comms/cdce with a tarball from freebsd.org,  which
contained the patch. I did make deinstall and make clean first in
/usr/ports/comms/cdce which ran successfully but then encountered
the problem above in /usr/ports/comms/cdce-1.0 . Now I am totally
confused as to what to do next. how do i remove the entire cdce
installation and rebuild from scratch?

A million thanks for your help

 No, but you do need to run make deinstall to safely remove the
 installed version and then make clean to remove your first attempt to
 build it.  It's probably not applying the patch and recompiling, if it
 has a version already built in the work subdirectory.

If it happens to be named beginning with patch-, then simply putting
it in the files subdirectory of the port in question usually does the
job.

The ports makefile system has code for automatically applying any
patch- files found in the files directory.
