Description James Wade 2012-06-14 09:40:01 UTC 
I'm currently getting this error when I try to install eggdrop on FreeBSD:

[root@amber ~]# cd /usr/ports/irc/eggdrop && make install
===>  License GPLv2 accepted by the user
===>  Found saved configuration for eggdrop-1.6.19
===>  Extracting for eggdrop-1.6.20_1
=> SHA256 Checksum OK for eggdrop1.6.20.tar.bz2.
=> SHA256 Checksum OK for eggdrop-1.6.20-ssl.zip.
tar: Unrecognized archive format: Inappropriate file type or format
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/irc/eggdrop.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/irc/eggdrop.

Fix: 

Changes need to be made in the Makefile so that it uses unzip on the .zip file rather than tar.
How-To-Repeat: cd /usr/ports/irc/eggdrop && make install

Fix Synopsis and assign.
Comment 2 nfhm2k 2012-06-14 19:00:39 UTC 
The bigger issue here is the SSL patch, it's unofficial.

The advise from the vendor is that using SSL patches are a bad idea.

http://www.eggheads.org/news/2011/05/25/39

Instead the port should switch to eggdrop1.8-snapshot (development but,
supports SSL) or eggdrop1.6.20 (latest but, no SSL support).

I tried to contact beech@freebsd.org, but received no reply, has this port
become unmaintained?
