gnome after portmaster

[hirohitosan]

Hi there

I installed Gnome from packages and after that I tried
# portmaster /usr/ports/x11/gnome2
It wasn't a good idea, after almost a day I got a new gnome with almost nothing working. No themes, no icons ... and a lot of error messages that I couldn't save it.

Now I don't know what to do.
1. Remove gnome (but I don't know how to do this) and installing again from packages?
2. Repair the actual installation but again I don't know where to start.

Any advice will help

thanks

installation:
cd /usr/ports/x11/gnome2-lite/
make install clean
cd /usr/ports/x11/gdm
make install clean
----------------------------------------------
Add gnome_enable="Yes" to your /etc/rc.conf and reboot.
FreeBSD_gnome faq can help you set up everything with gnome.

You can set a server to download the source file in your /etc/make.conf.

http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq222.htmlI followed the instructions described there but after few hours of compiling still no results. My Gnome has no icons and a lot of error messages like before :(

installation:
cd /usr/ports/x11/gnome2-lite/
make install clean

I tried to install gnome2-lite/ and gives me something like this
===> Checking if sysutils/gnome-settings-daemon already installed
===> gnome-settings-daemon-2.22.2.1_1 is already installed
You may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install this port again
by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.
If you really wish to overwrite the old port of sysutils/gnome-settings-da emon
without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
in your environment or the "make install" command line.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/sysutils/gnome-settings-daemon.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/x11/gnome-applets.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/x11/gnome2-lite.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/x11/gnome2-lite.
and then I tried

# cd /usr/ports/sysutils/gnome-settings-daemon/
# make deisntall
make: don't know how to make deisntall. Stop

I don't know what to do now ...

It is possible to uninstall or deinstall gnome and try again?

# cd /usr/ports/sysutils/gnome-settings-daemon/
# make deisntall
make: don't know how to make deisntall. Stop

I don't know what to do now ...


First of all: Check your spelling!

May help a lot! :P

Laziness, nothing more, nothing less :)

make deinstall

[smartly]

make clean && make install clean

[hirohitosan]

Sorry guys. It was my mistake.

Anyway after make deinstall

make clean && make install clean

I tried again # pkgdb -Ff
# portupgrade -f gstreamer-plugins-good
# pkg_deinstall -fO gnome-applets\* totem\* gnome-control-center\*
# portupgrade -aOW

after portupgrade -aOW my system entered in an endless :

=> Attempting to fetch from .... fedora/linux/core ...
fetch: .... fedora/linux/core/4/RPMS/bash-3.0-31.i386.rpm: Not found

From hours is fetching for bash-3.0-31.i386.rpm on different locations and same messages: Not found or Unavailable.

any advices?

thanks

i think if you are running 7.0-release, you might be better off updating to stable (or rc1/beta2) through freebsd-update at this point , then install gnome using packages (with pkg_add -r gnome2 or portupgrade -NPP gnome2 after deinstall). maybe someone else can advice what they think.

re : bash....rpm, i had occasions where it took an hour or two to get these files, but check that you have updated ports tree, and check if you have the file in /usr/ports/distfiles and delete it from there before trying again.

check if you have the file in /usr/ports/distfiles and delete it from there before trying again.

In /usr/ports/distfiles/ I have a directory bash


ls /usr/ports/distfiles/bash/

Can I remove the whole directory and try again?

make clean && make install clean

make clean install clean

Accomplishes the same effect, but with less typing and only one invocation of make.
make accepts multiple targets and the same target more than once.
