Problem with portmaster
Hello folks
I downloaded a new porstree with csup. Now I would like to update all ports with portmaster. I used "portsmaster -a" command. But I always get errors at licurl, python etc so that portmaster cannot proceed. Is there any option that portmaster builds from source and if it fail it tries to use packages? I know there are options to use packages with portmaster but not all software that I need to upgrade is avaliable as package. I would like to run portmaster for a night to build all new ports. |

Hi Freddie
I figured out what was wrong. I had forgot to set systemclock, so portmaster clouldnt compile portsource without systemclock. Now portmaster compiles and builds without error messages. No need for packages. |
