>Description:
The Makefiles in the pkgsrc x11 and devel directories have a
comment about how we would need a CONFLICTS feature for
something. These comments start with a tab, so make
chokes on them:
# cd /usr/pkgsrc/x11
# make clean
"Makefile", line 10: Unassociated shell command "# have a CONFLICTS feature (installs same"
"Makefile", line 11: Unassociated shell command "# files like Xaw3d)."
Fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Either put a # at the beginning of the line, or change
the leading tab to a space, or some similar fix.
It's a matter of taste, but I don't like right-margin
multi-line ``hanging'' comments, so I'd do something like:
...
SUBDIR += Xaw3d
## Don't enable Xaw-Xpm by default unless we have a
## CONFLICTS feature (Xaw-Xpm installs same files like Xaw3d).
## SUBDIR += Xaw-Xpm
# SUBDIR += afterstep
SUBDIR += amiwm
SUBDIR += asclock
...
