: Both. Unless you define INSTALL as `INSTALL -C' to avoid clobbering the : times of unchanged installed files. The libraries change a lot anyway, : but relinking all the binaries doesn't take long, so no one has been : annoyed enough to fix this or the bogon that dynamically linked : executables don't actually depend on the static libraries. Cool. So setenv INSTALL "install -C" should do the trick for me before I build, right? I should also be able to put this in /etc/make.conf, if I read sys.mk correctly. Without that hack, it took 1:11:35 to do a make all install. I'll have to see what delta that has on the build time. Also, should I bother with make depend? It takes another hour on my machine. It seems that there should be an easy way to tell if the .depend file is out of date or not. Will have to think about this because I want to use the feature, but not pay so high a price when 20 files in the whole system have changed. Or does this fall into the category of "always do a make depend, or we'll not help you if you get an odd failure" category? Warner
