Why nuke and CVSup the entire tree?
If you have copy of the last release around then a slightly modified
install.sh will work. I keep a copy locally, so this would exist in the
4.1.1-RELEASE directory:
#!/bin/sh
cd src
dists="base bin contrib etc gnu include lib libexec release sbin share sys
tools ubin usbin"
echo "Extracting sources into ${DESTDIR}/usr/src..."
for i in $dists; do
echo " Extracting source component: $i"
cat s${i}.?? | tar --unlink -xpzf - -C /usr/src
done
cd ../crypto
dists="crypto secure"
for i in $dists; do
echo " Extracting source component: $i"
cat s${i}.?? | tar --unlink -xpzf - -C /usr/src
done
echo "Done extracting sources."
exit 0
Change the 2 "dists=" lines to what you want (mine don't have games and
kerberos 4/5 respectively).
Then all you need do is re-CVSup, which is a *lot* faster than pulling the
entire tree. Should you do this, keep a copy of the old tree for
comparison, which will help track down why it happened in the first
place. Generally memory errors will start corrupting the source tree.
