Description Charlie Li freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2022-04-14 21:40:21 UTC 
Got the following bail-out almost immediately on -CURRENT base 6edfc10ca5f. Compared to 13.0-RELEASE, configure output is identical apart from FreeBSD version numbers.

===> Compilation failed unexpectedly.
Try to set MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE=yes and rebuild before reporting the failure to
the maintainer.

Stop.

Comment 1 Charlie Li freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2022-04-14 22:04:34 UTC 
Probably caused by the bmake update in base 1d3f2ddc32fc37e4835aa5a51eabc8696c1e8114

In any case, considering that GNU_CONFIGURE and USES=libtool are defined, the port should also have USES=gmake. Additionally, it looks like the software itself builds docs unconditionally (couldn't find anything to disable doc/) so USES=makeinfo is also needed.
Comment 2 Shawn Webb 2022-04-16 00:51:30 UTC 
HardenedBSD 14-CURRENT is impacted by this, too.
Comment 3 Rainer Hurling freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2022-04-16 14:54:02 UTC 
Created attachment 233250 [details]
Add to Makefile USES=gmake makeinfo

The patch seems to build, install and work for me (14.0-CURRENT amd64) :)
Comment 4 Poul-Henning Kamp freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2022-04-16 18:55:37 UTC 
Can confirm both breakage and that the patch works.
