/usr/local/lib/X11/app-defaults

[Jan Stary]

On a fresh install of current/i386 woth ports cvs up'd to current,
I am getting this whenever I try to build anything:

Fatal: /usr/local/lib/X11/app-defaults should exist and be a symlink

/usr/local/lib/X11/app-defaults does exist an is a directory
containing the file /usr/local/lib/X11/app-defaults/Gnuplot

Am I missing something obvious?

This is what I have on -current i386:

$ ls -l /usr/local/lib/X11/app-defaults
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  21 Jun 21 17:21 /usr/local/lib/X11/app-defaults@ -> /etc/X11/app-defaults

I didn't have xetc53.tgz installed. Thanks.

Does this mean that having xetc is required for running ports?
Have I missed somewhere in the documentation?

cd /usr/xenocara && make fix-appd

Yes, I'm not sure if this is specifically mentioned in documentation
yet, but building ports is only supported when the entire base OS is
installed (i.e. all sets including xenocara).

At the very least this should be added to DIAGNOSTICS in bsd.port.mk(5)
(and remove the "<PORTSDIR> is a symlink", since this check has been
removed from infrastructure).

There are two checks actually. I hope the use of .br here is kosher.

It doesn't fit very well with the other definitions; as there are different
reasons for the two messages, perhaps something like this would be better?
