#33127 closed defect (fixed)

git-core 1.7.9_0 build deletes /dev/null on 10.7.3

Reported by: scottfk@… Owned by: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)
Priority: High Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.0.3
Keywords: Cc: dev@…
Port: git-core

Description

A selfupdate + upgrade outdated pulled down a new git-core. The installation failed, and at the end of it I discovered /dev/null was missing. This causes many problems with any shell-based applications.

Rebooting brought back /dev/null, but attempting the upgrade outdated again resulted in /dev/null going away again.

Log file of a failed build and port -d output attached.

It upgraded without issue for me on two 10.7.3 machines, /dev/null was left intact.

Has duplicate #33129. It worked fine for me, too, though.

I have dealt with this problem in other ports before, so I'll take a look.

Replying to ryandesign@…:

I have dealt with this problem in other ports before,

Such as with Qt in #22701.

so I'll take a look.

Fixed the same way as before, in r89636.
