[Help-smalltalk] compilation errors

[Jay Dresser]

I am completely new to Smalltalk, but intrigued.

I updated the /usr/ports tree of FreeBSD and got the 2.0.8 version of
GNU Smalltalk.  I get errors in compiling/installing.

I first went through the dependencies tree by hand, making sure that
each correct version of each package was installed.  The error I get
is here when I do the make of smalltalk:

[...]
Making all in doc
gmake[2]: Entering directory 
`/usr/ports/lang/smalltalk/work/smalltalk-2.0.8/doc'
fixed=`pwd`/`echo gst.texi | sed 's/\.texi/-fixed&/' `; \
  cd . && \
  makeinfo --no-split `echo gst.texi | sed 's,.*/,,'` -E - -o /dev/null | \
  sed '/address@hidden/ s/:/_/g' > $fixed && \
  makeinfo --no-split $fixed > /dev/null 2>&1 && \
  rm -f $fixed

gmake: *** [all] Error 2

Stop in /usr/ports/lang/smalltalk.
Exit 1

Can anyone help me track down where the problem is?  Thanks.
