FW: mc not execute after portupgrading pkg-config\*

[Daniel Dvořák]

Hi all,

 

since my last report on the 26th of October, nobody knows what this stupid bug is.

 

I found out that

 

killall –CONT your shell interpret

 

helps.

 

I post it here, becuse it is not solution of this stupid bug, but working walkaround.

 

It definitely started between september 06 – october 06, IMHO something with subshell.c is not good.

Subject: mc not execute after portupgrading pkg-config\*

 

Hi all,

 

please help me with mc. It does not work in 2 and more ssh sessions.

 

After reading UPDATING file, there are last instruction about upgrading pkg-config.

 

Portupgrade users:

  pkgdb -Ff

  portupgrade -rf pkg-config\*

 

I did it as it is recommended.

 

Later I opened 2 ssh sessions to my server, I wanted to execute mc in both sessions.

 

I did it successfully in the first one and it failed in the second one with this never seen error:

 

 

> mc

read (subshell_pty...): No such file or directory (2)

 

 

Does anybody know what it means ? :)

 

I recompiled all dependencies and mc itself again.

 

portupgrade –Rf mc

 

It didn´t help me at all.

 

I do not understand what happens and what I did wrong.

 

Before portupgrading pkg-config\*, mc works fine.

 

Here are options for mc:

> cat /var/db/ports/mc/options

# This file is auto-generated by 'make config'.

# No user-servicable parts inside!

# Options for mc-4.6.1_3

_OPTIONS_READ=mc-4.6.1_3
