openldap-server-2.4.33_2
With FreeBSD 9.1 out, it is time get all my ports upgraded in advance of doing the OS update. The process is fairly painless, but occasionally, especially if you are slacking in the updates, a change in configuration causes the usually completely automatic “portupgrade -ra
” to fail.
One such update was “Upgrading 'openldap-sasl-server-2.4.31' to 'openldap-server-2.4.33_2
” which failed with a
===> openldap-server-2.4.33_2 conflicts with installed package(s): openldap-sasl-client-2.4.33_1 They install files into the same place. You may want to stop build with Ctrl + C. ===> License OPENLDAP accepted by the user ===> Found saved configuration for openldap-server-2.4.33 ===> openldap-server-2.4.33_2 conflicts with installed package(s): openldap-sasl-client-2.4.33_1 They will not build together. Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1). *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/net/openldap24-server.
But because this is FreeBSD and the open source community actually provides support, unlike, say Microsoft, where such an error would languish for months, if not years, with out a patch or any advice on how to fix it, the port maintainer, Xin Li, answered my question in less than 20 minutes with the following advice:
cd /usr/ports/net/openldap24-server make configCheck “SASL” is checked?
Following his directions, everything compiled perfectly.
