Howdy
I've got NetBSD 1.4 running on an 840av. I just downloaded and
untarred the current pkgsrc.tar.gz on my NetBSD hard drive in the usr
partition. This is my first attempt to install *any* packages, and
this portion went fine.
But when I try to build a package it fails, giving me the message:
line 318: could not find bsd.own.mk
../../mk/bsd.pkg.mk
I've looked in /usr/pkgsrc/mk and don't see any such file.
There is no mention of it in "mk.conf.example", in "Package.txt", in
the FAQ, or any other documentation that I've seen. Is this a path
problem? It seems as if the "make" command is finding the path to the
mk directory OK.
Am I missing a file? On the 1.3.2 distribution CD there is a file
BSD_OWN.MK in the mk folder. Is this missing in the current
pkgsrc.tar.gz? Is it just someplace that I can't locate?
I'm a unix newbie, and this is probably a simple solution, but I
couldn't find it
Oh... One more question. Is there a "prefered" window manger of
Xwindows. There are several in the pkgsrc and I'm not familiar with
any of them. I can imagine this being just personal preference, but if
one is more full featured and/or stable on a mac I'd appreciate some
feedback on it.
Thanks
