>Description:
First, make breaks on install saying to make sure the checksum file and distinfo file are up to date, which they are.
Then I override the check with make NO_CHECKSUM=yes install.
Finally, make breaks again saying that patch-ab failed.

I have the full make install output at:

http://othyro.freeshell.org/pkg/zlib

and then:

http://othyro.freeshell.org/pkg/zlib2
>How-To-Repeat:
# cd /sys/pkgsrc/mail/imap-uw
# make depend
# make install

<make breaks>

# make NO_CHECKSUM=yes install

<make breaks again>

That's all I did. =(
>Fix:
I think it's the Makefile expecting a directory that's actually a file. Couldn't fix it.
