Hi. I have recently installed XFree86-3.2 on my system. I'm running
FreeBSD 2.1.5-RELEASE currently, but will be upgrading to 2.2 when the
release CD comes out. But that's beside the point...
I'm trying to install the xpm-3.4j package from the FreeBSD ports tree
so that I can configure various other graphics stuff on my system. Most
of the graphics programs I am trying to install from the ports section
are complaining about imake. The error I keep getting is:
Checksums OK.
===> Building for xpm-3.4j
make: don't know how to make all. Stop
*** Error code 2
Stop.
*** Error code 1
Stop.
*** Error code 1
Stop.
Now, this is what is in the Makefile:
# 1 "Imakefile.c"
There is also a Makefile.noX which the README suggests I try, and it
appears as if that's what the port is configured for. So if I copy it
to Makefile and try compiling, I get the following:
Checksums OK.
===> Building for xpm-3.4j
making all in ./lib...

The files indeed are not on my system anywhere. I'm boggled. Surely
*someone* out there has installed this port. I'm pretty sure I'm
overlooking something, but I've gone over all the stuff I have and can't
find more detailed instructions. The README seems straightforward and
the FAQ doesn't hav any reference to installation problems in it.
Help!
Thanks!
Mike.
