Seems there is no precompiled package (see the package location ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8-stable/All/ or whatever matches your platform and OS version). But the ports p5-FuzzyOcr and p5-FuzzyOcr-devel are still present (at least in my not up-to-date ports tree) - have you tried installing from a port instead? -- 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

As many pkgs as possible are built from ports, irrespective of who the maintainers are. An unmaintained port is however less likely to have any issues attended to promptly. If you want to see exactly why no pkg exists, use portsmon: http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portoverview.py?category=mailportname=p5-FuzzyOcr and the reason is that the graphics/giflib port -- one of the dependencies -- failed to work properly. On 9.0-RELEASE it shows the problem is to do with XML validation, and there's an open PR about that which is assigned to the graphics/giflib maintainer. There should be a fix fairly soon.

Re: P5-FuzzyOcr port
I was migrating from v7 to v8 when I saw this a few nights ago. The upgrade was going speedily well till I hit that. Like I said I was able to get through it by building the port.
