Anybody else having issues with Ports

[fmh]

Hopefully the title is correct. I think that's what it's called under BSD.

Anyways I did a fresh install of GhostBSD under VMWare with the goal of getting some software ported to FreeBSD. I did a fresh install of GhostBSD 4.0 32-bit and then run the following commands to get everything in order to install software. This has normally worked for me with all the flavors of GhostBSD 4.0 and RCs.

# sudo portsnap fetch extract
# cd /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg
# sudo make install clean
# sudo pkg2ng
# sudo pkg install SoftwareNameHere

If needed
sudo pkg update -f

But today I do this and unless the Ports Repository is boogered up (which has happened a couple of months ago) I get all kinds of errors attempting to install software that I have always installed fine under all my GhostBSD 4.0 installations. So I figured I'd start from scratch and do a
# sudo make install uninstall
but that fails too.

fmh@ghostbsd /u/p/p/pkg> sudo make install uninstall

Use pkg to update pkg.

Code: Select all

sudo pkg install -f pkg

[fmh]

OK, I did
sudo pkg install -f pkg
it suggested to do
sudo pkg2ng
which I did and it generated a ton of errors.

I tried to instal Oper and get the following :

fmh@ghostbsd /u/p/p/pkg> sudo pkg install Opera
Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...

Something is very wrong in the current Ports. Since nothing changed in the ISO I am using when GhostBSD 4.0 was released I know it's not GhostBSD. I did another fresh install in VMWare just to make sure and after doing all the normal stuff I was informed to do a
sudo make deinstall
sudo make reinstall

so I did.

fmh@horvatbsd /u/p/p/pkg> sudo make reinstall
===> Installing for pkg-1.4.2
===> Registering installation for pkg-1.4.2

If you are upgrading from the old package format, first run:
# pkg2ng

So I did a
sudo pkg2ng
it runs for a long time and generates a lot of errors.

Then I go to install Opera and it fails
fmh@horvatbsd /u/p/p/pkg> sudo pkg install Opera

You do not need to use pkg2ng on GhostBSD 4.0, pkg2ng is use to convert pkgsrc to pkgng packages. To install Opéra might need to upgrade you pkg on the machine.

How would I upgrade pkg?

Something changed in Ports because everything worked about a month ago. Funny thing is Chromium one day is in Ports and the next it is not. So it is changing constantly and not always for the best in this case with the issue I am having. I have another VM installed a month ago and software will install just fine there. I have a document I created and store online so every time I create a new VM or setup GhostBSD on real hardware I do the exact same steps every time to get the machine setup. I Copy and Paste line for line from the document into the terminal. This is the first time it hasn't worked. That's why this morning I setup a fresh VM with GhostSBD just to make sure I didn't do anything wrong the other day. I still get the same errors so it wasn't me this time.

[ericbsd]

Chromium is always in ports, but not always in pkgng repository.

To upgrade pkg:

Code: Select all

pkg upgrade

But you might have problem with the new GDM upgrade, the GDM past from GDM2 to GDM3 and GDM 3 need 3D acceleration. Not that ports and packages on GhostBSD are always updating to the latest available if you want to install some software you will need to update constantly your software.

[fmh]

OK I did
sudo pkg upgrade

and got this screen when I went to shutdown. Now the system will not boot. I did this on the second VMWare fresh install of GhostBSD 4.0 and got the exact same thing and it will not boot either. So something is definitely not right.

[fmh]

Also got this screen after the pretty one before it. This is where it hung at Shutdown.

[ericbsd]

Yea playing with pkg upgrade can be scary some time. It might had remove some software if you do

Code: Select all

pkg install mate

You might see if something in missing.
