Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-ports-bugs->jdp Over to maintainer. State Changed From-To: open->feedback I can reproduce this problem, but only by closing the standard input like this (using "sh"): make install <&- Do you have any idea why the standard input was closed when you tried to build this port? State Changed From-To: feedback->closed The submitter confirmed that he was running the build in such a way that the standard input was closed. Specifically, he was running it as a remote job using ssh. I think the right way to deal with this is the "don't do that" approach. Remote builds should redirect standard input from /dev/null, if nothing else. This same problem would no doubt break a lot of other configure scripts, too, including those of all the gcc ports. I don't think it's worth changing all the affected ports to handle this case, since it's easy to avoid the problem in the first place. |
