Hi Greg, Did you have any local changes to darwinports.tcl? The ".mine" looks suspiciously like the diff text that svn inserts for a merge conflict. Can you take a look at that file? James On May 30, 2007, at 9:23 AM, Gregory Wright wrote:

Hi,

I did an svn update of base/ and rebuilt. When I tried to build gnome-panel, I got:

Is there an easy fix for this or a known good version I should back up to?

Thanks. Greg

Hi, To answer my own question, yes, I was missing something really simple. On May 30, 2007, at 1:31 PM, Gregory Wright wrote:

Good point. I had no local changes that I could recall, so I deleted everything in base/, re-updated, rebuilt and reinstalled, but I get the same error.

From base/ I searched for the string ".mine" with result:

This can be caused by a bad PortIndex file. It turns out that when I was away (and off the net) I made some changes and had to do a portindex. Updating my tree this morning gave conflicts. The solution was to delete all of the PortIndex.* files and redo the portindex. Now everything is happy. Greg
