I usually had these two together... Use of uninitialized value $sz in print at /usr/ports/infrastructure/lib/DPB/PortBuilder.pm line 133. print() on closed filehandle $fh at /usr/ports/infrastructure/lib/DPB/PortBuilder.pm line 139. Allowing for slight code change the line number has changed. I have a little script clear_logs.sh that does this sudo rm -rf /usr/ports/pobj/* cd /usr/ports/logs/`machine` ( find paths -type l | xargs wc -c >/dev/null ) 2>&1 | cut -d: -f2 | xargs rm ( find packages -type l | xargs wc -c >/dev/null ) 2>&1 | cut -d: -f2 | xargs rm rm locks/* So I haven't seen the errors for some time, since running my script before dpb. The reason is dpb creates a log file, then symbolic links to the log file, then deletes the log file on the next run leaving the link, but if dpb tries to get information from the log file such as size from the link, if the file doesn't exist the variable sz doesn't get set. try cd /usr/ports/logs/`machine` find paths -type l | xargs wc -c >/dev/null find packages -type l | xargs wc -c >/dev/null See how how many "file not found" errors are reported, and this should tell you which packages / paths. Adjust the above if not using the normal default directories. Nigel
