Greetings all, I am new user to FreBSD, and have been experiencing some difficulties with using ports. It seems that every time I try to install a port, I experience either a compiler error or the compiler seems to simply hang on the compilation of a file. It's not deterministic, sometimes the compiler will hang, sometimes it will generate an error, and sometimes it will successfully build the port. These occur on fairly standard ports, like Xorg and Xfce4.
The setup in question is a basic install of FreeBSD, with no "canned" installation package selected and no packages, other than cvsup installed. If this common from FreeBSD? It's discouraging me that I am having such a hard time setting this system up!
