Re: pfaedit errors: msg#00594

Subject: Re: pfaedit errors

I'm no expert on this I've been following the thread only superficially, but I would recommend cleaning things up before attempting to build anything again. What do I mean by cleaning things up? I mean going through every port that has been touched by the build process at any point and issuing 'port clean <port-name>. One easy way to do that in an automatic fashion is with the script pasted below:

#!/bin/sh

#####
## DarwinPorts cleaning utility. Created by Frank Ederveen,
## email: senax@xxxxxxxxx
####

DPORTS="$(\grep -v ^# /etc/ports/sources.conf | grep file | sed 's/file:\/\///')"

echo "Cleaning all ports in $DPORTS"
for i in $(find $DPORTS -name work -type d -print | sed 's/^.*\/\(.*\)\/work$/\1/')
do
 port clean $i
done


It transverses the entire dports/ directory looking for 'work' directories, cleaning only those ports that have them. Have you tried this? If you have, then this mail is late for dinner :-) Sorry for the unnecessary post in such case....

Would you recommend me nuking my X11 and X11SDK and reinstalling them? Would you recommend me nuking DP and reinstalling it? Just so you know, I even popped my Panther cdroms into the machine and had it check and repair disk permissions and the disk itself (3 files had incorrect permissions (none of which looked applicable to what is going wrong here) and the drive showed as having an incorrect amount of files); nothing major, so it had no problem fixing the problem. Thanks for your help in this matter.
