problem building fluxbox on NetBSD 5.1 with modular X.org

[Brainfsck]

Hi everyone,

I'm relatively new to BSD in general (have tried out Free and NetBSD in the past) but am familiar with Gentoo GNU/Linux, and I'm new to the forums.

So, on to my problem:
I want to build fluxbox whilst using a modular X.org but get the following error when I try:

(0/0) schweers@kallari /usr/pkgsrc/wm/fluxbox % sudo make

The supported build options for fluxbox are:

You can select which build options to use by setting PKG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS
or the following variable.  Its current value is shown:

btw: as a fallback I built openbox which works fine.
Does anyone have an idea what's wrong?
just in case, here's my uname:

Hello,

please add X11_TYPE=modular to your /etc/mk.conf file. More options you can find in:

http://www.netbsd.org/docs/pkgsrc/configuring.html

The problem is that I have already done that.

% cat /etc/mk.conf 
# Example /usr/pkg/etc/mk.conf file produced by bootstrap-pkgsrc
# Wed Aug 17 00:13:06 CEST 2011

.ifdef BSD_PKG_MK       # begin pkgsrc settings


PKG_DBDIR=              /var/db/pkg
LOCALBASE=              /usr/pkg
VARBASE=                /var
PKG_TOOLS_BIN=          /usr/pkg/sbin
PKGMANDIR=              man
MAKE_JOBS=              4
COPTS=                  -march=k8 -msse3
X11_TYPE=               modular

.endif                  # end pkgsrc settings

ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES+=vim-license
ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES+= openmotif-license

I've taken a look at a few Makefiles which are included, and I don't get why x11.buildlink3.mk
is included, as it's always protected against being used with a non-native X11.

Have you done it before the build failed or after? If you did after, clean the work dirs first and try again:

# make clean clean-depends
# make install

Wow, I was under the impression that I had done in in the right order, but apparently not, now it works. Thanks very much to both of you.

PS: If I knew how to thank you (forum wise) i would do so
