[rancid] Re: FreeBSD 7.0 + Expect 5.43.0 -- Do I need to patch expect?

[Sam Munzani]

I had similar issues a few months ago. Instead of spending time on 
debug, I chose to use the source from shruberry.net(2.3.2a7 version) 
instead of ports and used expect version 5.44.1.7. Everything seems to 
work with this combination.

Thanks,
Sam
