Installing fusefs-kmod: "Set SRC_BASE if it is not in /usr/src"

Hello people, after some months, I'm giving FreeBSD a second try (FreeBSD 7.0, this time). My problem is, when I try to install fusefs-ntfs, I get the following error when checking for the fusefs-kmod dependency:

Inside /usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-ntfs:

Code:

make install clean

(...)

===>  Installing for fusefs-ntfs-1.2216

===>  fusefs-ntfs-1.2216 depends on file: /usr/local/modules/fuse.ko - not found

===>    Verifying install for /usr/local/modules/fuse.ko in /usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-kmod

===>  fusefs-kmod-0.3.9.p1.20080208 requires the userland sources to be installed. Set SRC_BASE if it is not in /usr/src.

*** Error code 1



Stop in /usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-kmod.

*** Error code 1



Stop in /usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-ntfs.

*** Error code 1



Stop in /usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-ntfs.

I searched on google for this error and found tons of info about it. I installed the kernel source from the CD with sysinstall, attempted to reinstall the package and it failed with the same error. I also read some info on the net about a patch for the fusefs-kmod package Makefile, but I'm unsure about how to apply the patch (and I'm not sure if it works).

Additionally, I get this warning when the ntfs-3g dependency is being configured (previous to compiling process):

Code:

(...)

config.status: executing depfiles commands

You can type now 'make' to build ntfs-3g.

The issue I'm most concerned about is the first one, but this ntfs-3g issue is also important because I want my ntfs data partition to automatically mount during boot (and given the fact that the whole process is automated, I can't run the 'configure' script properly).

Does anyone know how to solve these two issues? Thanks in advance.

pull down the sources. csup your stable-source file
....quick run down

cp /usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile /root/stable-supfile

edit the /root/stable-supfile and put the cvsup site, and the release u want, like this

# listed at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/mirrors.html.
*default host=cvsup4.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/var/db
*default prefix=/usr
# The following line is for 6-stable. If you want 5-stable, 4-stable,
# 3-stable, or 2.2-stable, change to "RELENG_5", "RELENG_4", "RELENG_3",
# or "RELENG_2_2" respectively.
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_7_0
*default delete use-rel-suffix

then, i simple type in csup -L 2 /root/stable-supfile

itll pull down all your sources

then try rebuilding the port

i never use the sysinstall to pull down sources...i have in the past, but i like doing it manually and knowing what its doing

Thanks, I'll try it when I reinstall FreeBSD in some days (I removed it in order to install it on the first partition of my second HD). I'll let you know how it goes.

big big thnx for this manual, you saved my time =)

Sorry to dig up an old post, but I had this same problem and did what p3n1x said, and now I'm wondering how to delete the sources to get that hard drive space back. It installed sources for *everything* gcc, gdb, etc.. and I'd like to get that space back.

I'm new to freebsd so... please go gentle on me.

Thanks a lot.

Assuming /usr/src is really the culprit that's eating up your disk space...

# cd /usr/src && make cleanworld

If that doesn't free up enough space, you can delete /usr/src/*. (You'll have to csup again, though, if you need the source for anything later.)
