[please CC any answers, I'm not subscribed] The same thing happened to me. It's probably a bug in the Makefile somewhere but I didn't have the time to look this up. After the 'make install' command in the /usr/ports/x11/kdebase3/ directory if you try something like this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: ~] $ ll /usr/local/bin | grep mcopidl -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 274456 May 9 17:20 mcopidl [EMAIL PROTECTED]: ~] $ you'll see that the mcopidl file will have a prefix of 'freebsd-i386-portbld' or something similar which is breaking all the other ports who are depending on this file. Actually, there are a lot of files affected by this so you should manually remove the prefix from all of them with the help of a shell script in order to fix the problem. Then you can continue normally with the ports who depend on kdebase.

What is mcopidl ? - breaking kde upgrade
When attempting to rebuild kdebase I got the following error... checking for mcopidl... not found configure: error: The important program mcopidl was not found! Please check whether you installed aRts correctly or use --without-arts to compile without aRts support (this will remove functionality). Where should I find this to fix/install this program? Also where is the kdebase 'saved configuration' file ? I think that a setup value has got itself bent. mjt -- Murray Taylor Special Projects Engineer - Bytecraft Systems & Entertainment P: +61 3 8710 2555 F: +61 3 8710 2599 D: +61 3 9238 4275 M: +61 417 319 256 E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit us on the web http://www.bytecraftsystems.com http://www.bytecraftentertainment.com --- The information transmitted in this e-mail is for the exclusive use of the intended addressee and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
