I am trying to get CVsup running on 4.10.
The handbook indicates it is easier to
install the package, so I went to the
package collection and installed
cvsup-16.1h
The package installation seemed to indicate
the target directory was /usr/ports/net/cvsup.
(this was a message asking me to confirm the
installation from /stand/sysinstall)
When I had finished the installation, I could
not run cvsup - command not found.
when you finish an installation, you'll very often have to issue the
'rehash' command, which tells your csh to reread the $PATH which is set in
your .cshrc
if you didn't do this, you'll probably see the command 'magically' appear
after your next boot or if you open another term and su to root.
you do have to run this command as root, btw.;)
So I thought maybe I had to install from the
ports collection, so I cd'd to /usr/ports/net/cvsup
and ran Make. That seemed to go OK.
Then I did a Make Install. It stops with error
code 1. It says cvsup-16.1h already installed.
try 'pkg_info | grep -i cvsup' to see if you do have the program installed.
and, as root, 'echo $PATH'
I am not sure what I am doing wrong in all this.
Can anyone spot what it is ?
my first guess would be the 'rehash'. further guesses would depend upon
what you get from pkg_info and $PATH.
hth,
epi
(I realise that I shouldnt normally be installing
from a port just after a package install, but that
was just because I was out of ideas)
Thanks
