building on FreeBSD 8.0?
I know there are instructions in the INSTALL document how to port postfix to unsupported systems but I wonder if the list here has any help for getting postfix built on newly released FreeBSD 8.0. . . I tried simply duping the makedefs line for FreeBSD 7: FreeBSD.7*) SYSTYPE=FREEBSD7 with FreeBSD.8*) SYSTYPE=FREEBSD7 but that (of course) did not work: . . . [src/util] gcc -Wmissing-prototypes -Wformat -DHAS_MYSQL -I/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql -DUSE_TLS -I/usr/local/ssl/include -DUSE_SASL_AUTH -g -O -I. -DFREEBSD7 -c attr_clnt.c In file included from attr_clnt.c:77: /usr/include/unistd.h:329: error: conflicting types for 'closefrom' ./sys_defs.h:1395: error: previous declaration of 'closefrom' was here *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/local/src/postfix-2.6.5/src/util. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/local/src/postfix-2.6.5.

Uhh, good reason for not using the ports system? Been working a treat for me in 8.0 betas and RC's. -Reko

Why not try this, since Sahil has already put so much hard work into it: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/mail/postfix-current/ Sahil is a very active member here, so he'll likely chime in before long. -- Stan

Did `portinstall postfix` not work? …worked for me… -- 'They're the cream!' Rincewind sighed. 'Cohen, they're the cheese.' --Interesting Times
