Hi all,
For the record, I managed to build the packages with a bit of manual stop
and check.Turned out I had some packages missing, duplicated or obsolete.
32 bit jail and portmaster helped me a lot. Once you're about to begin the
next build of packages, remember to archive and truncate
/usr/ports/packages/All directory in the jail/build host, so that you're
not spending 3-4 hours wondering why the installation of package X failed.
Extra care should be taken when one is updating perl/php/mysql/berkley db
/ruby et all. Full rebuild of packages/modules in that case is recommended.
Have a nice week-end!
Best regards,
Dimitar
