I've cvsup'd the ports tree again this afternoon. I've forced a reinstall of perl 5.8.2. Doing a "make index" in /usr/ports still results in a 0 byte INDEX-5. I've got /usr/ports symlinked to /usr/local/ports due to space constraints. Could this be affecting the output of make index in any way? -- Freddie Cash fcash-ml at sd73.bc.ca
