### Apologies in advance if you saw this on FreeBSD-Questions - but I haven't had any responses or been able to find it in the archives. ### Hi Everyone! I'm new to CVS, and I've only upgraded FreeBSD a few times via CVS, but each time without many hiccups (well no problems this far into the piece). But I have to upgrade a machine running FreeBSD 4.6.1-RELEASE-p10 #5 - and I have a feeling that the last person to upgrade it may have left something out, or failled to do something. Needless to say, I upgraded an exact same clone of the box (hardware) from FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE, and it worked without a hitch. Now when I run make buildworld I get the following: make buildworld Makefile:137: *** missing separator. Stop. *** Error code 2 Stop in /usr/src. The same goes for "make upgrade_checks" and "make clean" (and having almost no usable c experience, I opened the Makefile in vi, and went to line 137, but couldn't understand it), but I decided to compare that Makefile with the Makefile on the computer world did build (and install) successfully on - there was no difference. Does anyone have any ideas I could try? How would I find out if the make utility is broken because other applications (like PHP and Apache) compile just fine.
