I've not seen something like that ... seems more like a base issue..

Debug output please.

Is your file system case-sensitive? Wait 30 minutes, then selfupdate and see if r77709 helped.

[nelson.ferreira@…]

Yes, my filesystem is case sensitive. I just did a selfupdate and now it did work. Thanks.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Great, glad to hear that. I've written a script to look through all the ports' dependencies to help me find other case discrepancies, but it's finding several other issues as well so it'll take me some time to fix them all.
