NetBSD executor 3.0_STABLE NetBSD 3.0_STABLE (EXECUTOR) #0: Wed Feb 1 15:15:56 CET 2006 woodstoc@executor:/usr/obj/sys/arch/i386/compile.i386/EXECUTOR i386
>Description:
www/opera-acroread7 refuses to build because it is marked BROKEN, but it does actually work perfectly
>How-To-Repeat:
try to build www/opera-acroread7:
===> Binary install for opera-acroread7-1.0
Installing from source
===> Broken on NetBSD/i386 3.0 in pkgsrc-2005Q4
===> Will be removed in pkgsrc-2006Q1 unless fixed
*** Error code 1
>Fix:
remove those PKG_FAIL_REASON definitions in www/opera-acroread7/Makefile, or better yet stop marking "broken" packages at all
