I now went to the linux-sun-jdk tree did a make clean and was going to build the port and I noticed something that struck me as strange

The above shows that linux_base-7.1_5 is installed. BUT a make-clean shows that it was cleaning for linux_base_7.1_7.

Nothing to worry about there. That just probably means you installed linux_base back when it was 7.1_5 (before early Feb or so). But you have since updated your ports tree, and now linux_base is 7.1_7. So when linux-sun-jdk goes to do a make clean on the dependencies, it says it's cleaning the work dirs for 7.1-7.

You could use portupgrade (as you did) to update your linux_base if you want (or deinstall, then make install again) and you will get the newer version.

So just now tried a portupgrade and to get to the 7.1_7 version. It went along for awhile, started installing and then I see I get a failure with an excution failed on the script glib-2.2.4-33.

You didn't say what the failure was, but obviously installing 7.1_7 works okay here.

That confirms that. I have vision problems so I normally don't run Xfree but live almost exclusively in a 80x24 test workd.

You may not use it, but it's possible other ports want X in order to build.

So did you ktrace that last bit (probably the install.sfx is a linux app... use file to tell)?

I did not use ktrace, and I'm not really a programmer - been more of a syadmin and fixer for a long time.

ktrace is a valuable tool for a sysadmin and it's easy to use. And it's useful when reporting problems on mailing lists ;)

So - before I continue on I'm going to try to upgrade the glibc.

Your hints put me on hopefully the right track.

Good luck.
