Created attachment 144900 [details] Output of compiler/linker for libpurple This error is not familiar to me at all. When trying to build pidgin/libpurple compilation fails with the following output: Error: 'lib/purple-2/perl/auto/Purple/.packlist' is referring to /usr/ports/net-im/libpurple/work/stage I'm not sure what the problem is. The full output is attached along. This is the content of the packlist file: /usr/ports/net-im/libpurple/work/stage/usr/local/lib/purple-2/perl/Purple.pm /usr/ports/net-im/libpurple/work/stage/usr/local/lib/purple-2/perl/auto/Purple/Purple.bs /usr/ports/net-im/libpurple/work/stage/usr/local/lib/purple-2/perl/auto/Purple/Purple.so /usr/ports/net-im/libpurple/work/stage/usr/local/lib/purple-2/perl/auto/Purple/autosplit.ix /usr/ports/net-im/libpurple/work/stage/usr/local/man/man3/Purple.3
On what version of FreeBSD is this?
10.0 x86-64 $ uname -a FreeBSD FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE #0 r260789: Thu Jan 16 22:34:59 UTC 2014 root@snap.freebsd.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64
Should be fixed now. Thanks for reporting.

Thanks, it's working.
This error is coming up again when trying to build and install net-im/libpurple or net-im/pidgin. I have just upgraded to FreeBSD 10.1: $ uname -a FreeBSD FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE #0 r274401: Tue Nov 11 21:02:49 UTC 2014 root@releng1.nyi.freebsd.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 I am trying to install libpurple 2.10.11: $ pkg search libpurple libpurple-2.10.11 Error: 'lib/purple-2/perl/auto/Purple/.packlist' is referring to /usr/ports/net-im/libpurple/work/stage Warning: 'lib/purple-2/perl/auto/Purple/Purple.so' is not stripped consider trying INSTALL_TARGET=install-strip or using ${STRIP_CMD} I think the "Warning" is unrelated but "INSTALL_TARGET=install-strip" is already in the Makefile.
Should be fixed now.
