Hi,

I have 2 machines running FreeBSD-9.2. On one I ran
Code: 
portsnap fetch update
a couple days ago. Today on the second I ran same command. It appears I have a different version of /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk on each machine.

On the first
Code: 
# ls -la /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk
-rw-r--r--  1 root   wheel   223508 Jul 15 06:20 /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk

On the second
Code: 
# ls -la /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk
-rw-r--r--  1 root   wheel   225547 Jul 17 11:35 /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk

The newer version has a line that reads
Code: 
.include "${PORTSDIR}/Mk/bsd.pbi.mk"
and for which no such file exists in directory /usr/ports/Mk/.

It prevents the installation/update of ports, both by ports-mgmt/portmaster and by make. At least I think it's the root cause for both. Portmaster actually complains about
Code: 
===>>> The value of DISTDIR cannot be empty

Is this an issue where something got temporarily out of synch upstream on the servers?

Or is this something I might've caused inadvertently in following directions for CentOS here
https://github.com/xmj/linux-ports? (Which by the way did work on machine number one albeit a couple months ago)
Using this guide, I followed along until I was unable to install emulators/linux_base-c6.
 
Re: bsd.port.mk and bsd.pbi.mk

Update:
Before marking it solved, I'll invite any constructive criticism.

I don't know if I *should* have, but I *did* comment out that one line..
And things appear to work without causing obvious catastrophe. Portmaster & make commands, and linux environment.
 
I'll have to dig more and figure out why one machine has that line and not the other. Something must have gone awry during portsnap..
