OK, I'm in uncharted territory (at least, for me). Ordinarily I simply pull whatever the latest source tree off of my latest CD and build the world whenever the mood strikes me. Lately I've been fascinated with the capabilities of 'cvsup` and figured, "What the heck, I'll give it a shot." I started with an empty /usr/src. I tweaked the CVSUP files to pull -stable into my tree. Hours later (14.4 - ugh) I had a spanking new source tree under /usr. Plenty of disk to spare (~700Mb). As root, (cd /usr/src ; make world). Poom! No success. Didn't know how to make cleandir. OK, 'make -DNOCLEANDIR world`. It doesn't like a *lot* of things in ctype.h. I could fiddle for days, but I'll cut to the chase; How does one build a -stable release after cvsup'ing the appropriate bits? (I started with the 960501 SNAP, for what that's worth.) Thanks! ...sjs...
