It is very odd, and this old laptop is freshly installed with PC-BSD
8.1 and I haven't really fed my 120GB harddrive up with my data yet.

============== to here ======================

Oddly, a manual run of "portsnap -p /pbi-build/ports fetch extract
update" seems to have fixed the incomplete port tree. Now I wonder why
the same portsnap command did not work in preportmake.sh...

Now that my port tree has been fixed, buildpbi.sh seems to be working
as expected... for now. Currently it's running port build for
math/R... let's see how it goes.

Just got another question now: many ports require "make config" (or
even "make config-recursive". How does PBI Builder handle these
options?

Regards,
Sam



Sam,

For what it's worth, I sometimes run into problems where the build
process won't grab a port or complete the portsnap. I think it's due to
a network timeout. Usually running the pbibuild script again will work
for me.
