This happened on all of my machines running Crux 2.2. Probably because I configured them the same way. Consulted the FAQ, mailing list, and Google but no answers as to why update from 6.9.0-4 to 6.9.0-5 of X11 failed (see the end of the build as well as below): [stuff deleted] " make[5]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/opt/x11/work/src/xc/fonts/bdf/cyrillic' make[4]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/opt/x11/work/src/xc/fonts/bdf' making all in fonts/scaled... make[4]: Entering directory `/usr/ports/opt/x11/work/src/xc/fonts/scaled' making all in fonts/scaled/Type1... make[5]: Entering directory `/usr/ports/opt/x11/work/src/xc/fonts/scaled/Type1' rm -f fonts.scale LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../../../exports/lib XLOCALEDIR=../../../exports/lib/locale ../../../exports/bin/mkfontscale . rm -f fonts.dir LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../../../exports/lib XLOCALEDIR=../../../exports/lib/locale ../../../exports/bin/mkfontscale -b -s -l . /usr/bin/fc-cache . /usr/ports/opt/x11/work/src/xc/fonts/scaled/Type1: failed to write cache make[5]: *** [fonts.cache] Error 1 make[5]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/opt/x11/work/src/xc/fonts/scaled/Type1' make[4]: *** [all] Error 2 make[4]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/opt/x11/work/src/xc/fonts/scaled' make[3]: *** [all] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/opt/x11/work/src/xc/fonts' make[2]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/opt/x11/work/src/xc' make[1]: *** [World] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/opt/x11/work/src/xc' make: *** [World] Error 2 =======> ERROR: Building '/usr/ports/opt/x11/x11#6.9.0-5.pkg.tar.gz' failed. -- Packages where update failed x11 Press <ENTER> to continue .." Could someone please tell me what is going on here? Thanks --theo

Solved it. Another Crux subscriber mentioned that repeating prt-get sysup worked for him, but it did not for me, but it gave me a lead, so I just uninstalled and reinstalled fontconfig & x11. (fontconfig is related to the failing fc-cache) and voilá. Perhaps this is of use to others. --theo

The problem was that you didn't update fonts.conf and fonts.dtd using rejmerge when you updated fontconfig. Regards, Tilman -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?
