Not on a 6.2 system.  They would link against libc.so.7 and you'd only
have libc.so.6 for one.

I did not have this problem.


 In an attempt to get one of the updated ports I put in the /root/.profile
 
 PKG_PATH=ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/amb64/packages-current; and
 
 logged out. But when I run PKG_ADD -r dri-7.0.1,2.tbz. It tells me it could

 find the port.
You want PACKAGESITE
i.e.
PACKAGESITE=ftp://ftp13.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/amd64/packages-6.2-release/Latest/

The trailing / is important.

Re: 6.2 AMD64 Ports Problem

2007-09-17 Thread forum
Thats weird. When I updated using cvsup it updated all of the ports in my
/usr/ports directory. I then ran make install on /usr/ports/x11/xorg, it then
looks for dri-7.0.1,2.tbz, but that file isn't in
amd64/packages-6.2-release/latest or amd64/packages-6.2-release/graphics/. It is
only in the packages-7-release/graphics directory. 
Why would xorg require a app that isn't in my current build? How do I get around
it if I cant use the packages-7-release files?

Thanks for you help

A couple of points:

1) 'make install' doesn't try to install packages, it installs ports. 
In particular 'make install' doesn't fetch packages from the FTP site, 
these are added by pkg_add -r (and other commands).


2) Updated packages for 6.x are in the packages-6-stable/ directory.
