poudriere build log

FreeBSD 13.0-RC5, building with poudriere for i386, building fails with this:

===>  Building for e2fsprogs-libss-1.46.2
(cd /wrkdirs/usr/ports/devel/e2fsprogs-libss/work/e2fsprogs-1.46.2/lib/ss && compile_et ss_err.et &&  /usr/bin/sed -i.bak -f /usr/ports/devel/e2fsprogs-libss/files/fix-ss_err.h.sed ss_err.h)
/bin/sh: compile_et: not found
*** Error code 127

Full poudriere log attached.

Trying to fix this myself, I found I can build and use compile_et from inside the source tree itself, which leads to the next problem: libcom_err is required.

This is part of e2fsprogs package, which *depends* on e2fsprogs-libss.

workaround for build error

I made it build successfully with this patch, but I think it's the wrong thing to do. libcom_err.so will still be installed by e2fsprogs and yet be linked here…
