Hello !

I'm trying to compile Cricket, but I get this error message :
server:/usr/ports/net-mgmt/cricket# make
===>  cricket-1.0.5_4 uses a UID registered to another port.
*** Error code 1
Can anybody look into this problem ?
Did you remove the IGNORE line from the Makefile? It looks like you may
have.  The IGNORE line explicitly states what the problem is; you
shouldn't be able to build the port if IGNORE is set to non-null.
IGNORE=         uses a UID registered to another port

The IGNORE line is why the build stopped in the first place (notice that the messages are the same).


The solution was to comment out this line like this :

$FreeBSD: ports/net-mgmt/cricket/Makefile,v 1.28 2007/04/11 16:20:53 mux Exp $

#IGNORE=         uses a UID registered to another port

Now I was able to compile and install cricket.

Keep in mind it's not a solution, just a workaround (because the problem still exists).

BTW, you shouldn't really edit the port makefile like that - as long as you are aware of the issues, you can build a port with NO_IGNORE set.
