*THIS* 'not found' indicates the linking (at least) of the exuecutable will
probably fail.
Thanks for the reply. This knowledge is not all that useful. The process of
making this port will, of course, make all dependencies of this port. By not
finding that item forces the installation of www/webkit-gtk2 below. This is
not an error.

_these_ errors may be a separate issue They indicate an incompatibility
between the code and the -compiler- being used. This could be an artifact
of other errors, like the one implied below, or they could be from unrelated
causes. Eliminate the other errors, and see if this remains.
The port maintainers are responsible for assuring the compiler matches the
code, and that the code compiles with that compiler. This is clearly an
error, but one that I have no idea how to fix.
Source/WebKit/gtk/webkit/webkitversion.h:33: Warning: WebKit:
symbol='WEBKITGTK_API_VERSION': Unknown namespace for symbol
'WEBKITGTK_API_VERSION'
This is probably directly related to the 'not found' error above.
Not so sure about that. But again, how is this (and other errors) to be
fixed? Why don't the port maintainers respond to this thread?

as are all these.
Again, not so sure about that.
Can anyone tell me what is going on here and how I can correct it?
Can it be that this port does not build correctly on AMD hardware?
Again, thanks for the reply, but it doesn't get me all that much closer
to getting this port built. Anyone else have any ideas or pointers?

Can you check if you got the video option selected? make config if you
haven't, please select it and do a make clean before trying to build it.

upcoming 9.0 release

Assuming the freebsd-update utility will bring me from the 8.2-release to the new 9.0-release I'm not sure what to do exactly with the installed ports. I always use portmaster. What steps do I take to get from installed ports on 8.2-release to 9.0? Is there a nice and working procedure to follow?

What steps do I take to get from installed ports on 8.2-release to 9.0? Is there a nice and working procedure to follow? Thanks for the advice. Basically, there are two approaches: a) Update everything. Using portmaster (and also portupgrade), you can update all ports that are installed via all plus recursion. Make sure to read the UPDATING file regarding your installed applications. Also see man portmaster (or man portupgrade) for the correct switches to portmaster so it can run without any further inter- action (which is often desired). b) Install from scratch Make a list of the ports you _intendedly_ want to use, this means do not pay much attention at dependencies that you don't want to have, but are forced to. :-) It's often helpful to make a list of installed ports from the system prior to updating. Then install the ports on your list, as they will pull in any dependencies they need. This makes sure you don't carry cruft and bloat from your prior installation that you _maybe_ don't have any actual use for. Needless to say, you should bring your ports tree up to date before starting either procedure. :-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ 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

I have been so advised by a number of people to do just this and I
am investigating.
I am not horribly concerned about this, though, because the
machine in question is a NATing front end for a private,
non-routable LAN and the associated nameserver uses split-horizon
DNS to make all the internal name-ip associations invisible
outside the LAN. So ... I don't really see much threat
here. I am throttling ICMP rates via sysctl because - AFAIK -
the only overt ICMP attack is to flood a target in hopes
of getting Denial Of Services.
As with you, I remain open to someone presenting a scenario
wherein a particular ICMP protocol could actually cause harm...
Thanks for your time.

Re: failure building www/webkit-gtk2 on 8.2-STABLE

Excellent advice!!! Thank you very much! Looks like -questions comes through again. You folks are wonderful. :-) Now for some questions and issues to resolve this once and for all. How could I have possibly known that this option (WITH_VIDEO=yes) was required? I looked back at when I last built www/webkit-gtk2 and that was here: -rw-r--r-- 0 root wheel 215 Jan 19 2010 webkit/options In that file I found: WITHOUT_VIDEO=yes So about a year ago www/webkit-gtk2 built just fine WITHOUT the video option. What changed? I checked and there is no match (using grep) in the /usr/ports/UPDATING file (whose first entry dates from 20080108): % grep -i webkit /usr/ports/UPDATING % So I wouldn't have found anything there. I see in the Makefile that WITH_VIDEO has a default of on. That must not have been the case a year ago. Should I blame the www/xxxterm for having a dependency on www/webkit-gtk2? During the attempted build of www/xxxterm I was not asked for any options for www/webkit-gtk2 since I had a previous file /var/db/ports/webkit/options from back about a year ago. This is now a moot point, since the port did build correctly with this change (thanks again!), but for completeness sake and for my own sanity, how would I have been able to avoid this problem?

Issues with Link Aggregation
Hello Freebsd-Questions, I have an Asus laptop running FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE-p4. I have successfully configured both the wired and wireless interfaces. They both work individually. I use the wireless interface more than the wired, so I have attempted to us link aggregation (LAGG) to tie the two together so either can be used when connected. lagg and iwn have been added into a custom compiled kernel. FreeBSD on this Asus uses alc0 for the wired interface and iwn(wlan0) for the wireless interface. The following is in my rc.conf: ifconfig_alc0=up wlans_iwn0=wlan0 ifconfig_wlan0=up wpa cloned_interfaces=lagg0 ifconfig_lagg0=laggproto failover laggport wlan0 laggport alc0 ipv4_addrs_lagg0=192.168.2.90/24 defaultrouter=192.168.2.1 hostname=asus.local Looking at various documentation shows this should support wlan0 as the master and alc0 as the failover. Everything is working like it should. However, every so often, I get messages on the console stating: alc0: phy read timeout : 0 alc0: phy read timeout : 17 alc0: phy read timeout : 1 ... alc0: phy read timeout : 1 Even though this is happening, there doesn't appear to be any issues. Can anyone shed light on why these messages are showing up? -- If at first you don't succeed, so much for skydiving. ___ 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

AHCI driver and static device names
I was getting ready to install the latest FreeBSD 9-RCs image, and I found that 9 now defaults to using the ahci driver for sata disks. This would be great if it weren't for the fact that the ahci driver seems to do dynamic device name assignment as opposed to the static ones used with the older drivers. I've looked around on google and while this is mentioned (in old threads), the solution is to use labels or elaborate mapping via hints which really aren't solutions imo. If I have 15 disks in an array, I want to be able to label them and know which bay is which device name. If I have to replace a drive, I have no idea what dynamic device name it will have when it comes time to partition (and label, if I were using that). I could probably figure it out by looking at what disks are used on the system, but that's more work that it really should be. Is there a way to use the ahci driver and get static device names?
