To whom it may concern,

I installed OpenBSD 4.6 on a computer here at work the other day.  
Immediately after the install was finished I downloaded the latest ports 
package and unpacked it in the /usr folder (ie: /usr/ports)  I then 
tried to install emacs from the /emacs22 and it errored out at the 
following:

Thinking that I had messed it up, I reinstalled yesterday afternoon and 
then ftp'd the ports package, installed it and then tried to install 
emacs again with the exact same results. 

Now this is the same computer that was running 4.2 prior to my reinstall 
and I could, and did, install many packages with that version.  I'm not 
sure what's going on but I'm left wondering if there isn't something 
wrong with this ports package that no matter what I try to install, and 
I've tried to install 3 separate applications since yesterday's 
reinstall of the OS, I get the exact same result when it gets to the 
"gettext" portion on the install.

I'm hoping you can help since I can't find anything on the internet or 
the OpenBSD sites regarding this issue and I do need to install several 
packages from the ports.

Thank you for your time and attention.

Sincerely,
