make update problem?
I'm trying to update a box from 5.1-RELEASE-p17 to 5.3-RELEASE-current-p-level. In preparation, I checked out 5.3-RELEASE from cvsup the other day: (from my supfile:) *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5_3 *default delete use-rel-suffix Then, just to be sure I've got what I need, I went to do a make update today (I just wanted to make sure I had the latest patch release before I did the build): # make update Makefile.inc1, line 830: warning: String comparison operator should be either == or != Makefile.inc1, line 830: Malformed conditional ((!defined(NO_RESCUE) || defined(RELEASEDIR)) (${TARGET_ARCH} != ${MACHINE_ARCH} || ${BOOTSTRAPPING} 501101)) Makefile.inc1, line 830: Missing dependency operator Makefile.inc1, line 832: if-less endif Makefile.inc1, line 832: Need an operator make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. This also happens if I try a make clean (which I usually do before I do any major builds, to be sure there's no cruft anywhere...): make clean Makefile.inc1, line 830: warning: String comparison operator should be either == or != Makefile.inc1, line 830: Malformed conditional ((!defined(NO_RESCUE) || defined(RELEASEDIR)) (${TARGET_ARCH} != ${MACHINE_ARCH} || ${BOOTSTRAPPING} 501101)) Makefile.inc1, line 830: Missing dependency operator Makefile.inc1, line 832: if-less endif Makefile.inc1, line 832: Need an operator make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src.

Any USB-to-Serial adapters working in FBSD? [Re: Any experiencewith KeySpan USA-19W?]

Do they work well in FreeBSD 5.3-RELASE? http://www.keyspan.com/products/usb/USA19W/ We're looking to set up a console server in our colo, and these looked like a good way of doing multiple serial ports fairly cheaply. I've worked with similar keyspan adapters with linux before, but it doesn't seem that any of them are supported in freebsd yet. It's a shame as there the best USB-Serial adapters I've used. If anyone has any other recommendations for adapters, I'd be intrested to hear them. Well maybe someone will see the revised header and hopefully have some ideas... I'd hate for us to have to invest that kind of money in a Rocketport--they're just so damn costly :( Plus, if we can get USB-to-serial adapters to work, if anyone ever leaves our little bandwidth collective, they can take it with them... I hope there's something out there that works :-/ I'm going to give the keyspan a shot Thursday night just to see what happens.

Re: Keep compile options through upgrade
Olivier Certner wrote: Hello all, Is there an easy way to keep/retrieve the options last used to compile a given port? This could be used with portupgrade to upgrade to a newer version while retaining the previous build-time configuration (of course this won't work if the options available change). Maybe I could put all the options in make.conf, but in this case I fear that this file would become really messy. Moreover, if options are shared by several ports, no fine grain tuning per port will be possible. Any advices? Check /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf Some ports keep things in /var/db/ports too...
