Cy.Schubert> Would it be possible to untar the Sendmail 8.11.3 tarball from Cy.Schubert> sendmail.org in a -STABLE contrib directory to build and Cy.Schubert> install the new Sendmail on a 4.2-STABLE, 4.2-RELEASE, or Cy.Schubert> 4.3-RELEASE (when it goes GA) system? Or, does a person need Cy.Schubert> to patch any Makefiles (or need to upgrade to -STABLE) to get Cy.Schubert> the latest Sendmail"? -CURRENT already has 8.11.3. -STABLE will have it Monday. You can drop in the tar file to /usr/src/contrib/sendmail as long as you make the changes outlined in /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/FREEBSD-upgrade. However, you will lose the FreeBSD specific changes. If you don't use smrsh or the mail.local nofsync or nobiff options, then it won't be much of a problem. All in all however, I would probably just untar it and build/install it using the packaged build system that comes with the distribution or wait until Monday and cvsup.
