I AM ROOT on voip in /usr/ports/print/pips-spr300_310 # sysctl kern.osreldate
kern.osreldate: 491101

NB: I am assuming a typo in the word descrbe...correct?

I don't know if Anna would fail. Anna is a machine that I have not
run make update on, through to portupgrade, since approximately Wed
Sep 1 00:31:40 EDT 2004. At that time, there were no errors during
portupgrade. Voip was upgraded after that time and date. I only
mentioned Anna because, to my eye, the /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk files
are identical. I was assuming some sort of hardware glitch on voip (a
rather low-end machine) to be the most likely culprit. Given the
output above, I suppose I was wrong.

None of this is critical to my needs; voip is just fine now. But
please let me know if I can be of any assistance. I'll help any way I
can. And let me know if I should trim the Cc: line...

Best regards,

Joe
