KDE4 source install and error

Hello,

I've been trying to install kde4 and I've gotten to a point where I get an error of:

Code:

I saw an older post from 2010: http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=16752

But when I try what they suggest e.g. [CMD=]# xmlto man -o man /usr/ports/print/system-config-printer/work/system-config-printer-1.1.16/man/system-config-printer.xml --skip-validation[/CMD] and try the [cmd=]make install clean[/cmd] it doesn't seem to fix anything. I am very new to unix and FreeBSD so if you need any more info let me know.

THanks for your support!

I ran [cmd=]make install clean[/cmd] on textproc/docbook-xml and it seemed to just clean some residual files which to me means that it was installed. pkubaj, I am on the internet since all the other dependencies downloaded fine. It just seems to have issues with that docbookx.dtd thing or something?

Thanks for your help!
 
Code: 
docbook-4.1_4     V4.1 of the Docbook DTD, designed for technical documentation
docbook-xml-4.2_1 XML version of DocBook DTD
docbook-xsl-1.75.2_1 XSL Docbook stylesheets

On a side note is there an easy way to copy and paste the output rather than typing it out? I'm running it in VMware workstation if that helps.
 
You're missing a lot of the standard docbook stuff. I don't know which the KDE stuff needs, but it wouldn't hurt to install the standard docbook:
# cd /usr/ports/textproc/docbook
# make rmconfig
# make install clean

rmconfig is to remove any customized settings for the docbook port. Accept the defaults when it shows the options screen, and it will bring in all the other standard docbook modules as dependencies.
 
That might have gotten it. So you think for some reason that the docbook install was damaged or did I do somthing wrong?

Forgive me for asking but what is the docbook for anyway?
 
In another recent thread, someone else had the same problem. A port needed docbook, but not all of it had been installed. This is probably a dependency error, where the port maintainer already had docbook installed and didn't notice that the port should include it. You showed in post #1 that print/system-config-printer really did need docbook, or at least part of docbook. This is an ideal first PR, or at least find the maintainer of that port (make maintainer) and send them an email pointing to this thread.

Why should you do that?
1. Because if you don't, odds are you will see this error again and have to diagnose and fix it again.
2. Because if it's fixed, not only you but everybody else that uses that port will benefit.

Oh, and docbook is a documentation markup language, used for FreeBSD documentation and also, evidently, KDE documentation.
