Product: Base System Reporter: drwho <drwho>
Component: gnuAssignee: freebsd-bugs (Nobody) <bugs>

Description drwho 2000-07-04 03:40:01 UTC 
Ran "make buildworld".  Everything compiled cleanly.  When running
"make installworld", however, the install fails on perl with the following
errors:

vm/vm_zone.h -> vm/vm_zone.ph
vm/vnode_pager.h -> vm/vnode_pager.ph
*** Error code 1

Stop.

Fix: 

None available.
How-To-Repeat: 
Either try running "make installworld" or just cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl
and run "make install".

Accordingly to lists, you may have stale symlinks in the /usr/include
and h2ph script exits with error code, stopping installworld. Make sure
you don't have any symlinks in /usr/include without target.

You can identify the dangling symlinks in /usr/include with this 
ugly but workable shell construct: 

find /usr/include -ls |  
sed -ne 's/^.*[^ ][^ ]* -> ([^ ][^ ]*)$/1/p' |  
xargs ls
