When I try to run mergemaster v1.36, it comes with these:
but I do have the directory, /usr/src/etc/
Any help ? Thanks,
Jia

*** Your PAGER environment variable specifies 'more', but
I cannot execute it. In general it is good practice to
specify the full path for environment variables like
PAGER and EDITOR. Meanwhile, what would you like to do?
Use 'e' to exit mergemaster and fix your PAGER variable
Use 'm' to use plain old 'more' as your PAGER for this run
Default is to use plain old 'more'
What should I do? [Use 'more']
*** The directory specified for the temporary root environment,
/var/tmp/temproot, exists. This can be a security risk if untrusted
users have access to the system.
Use 'd' to delete the old /var/tmp/temproot and continue
Use 't' to select a new temporary root directory
Use 'e' to exit mergemaster
Default is to use /var/tmp/temproot as is
How should I deal with this? [Use the existing /var/tmp/temproot]
*** Leaving /var/tmp/temproot intact
*** Creating the temporary root environment in /var/tmp/temproot
*** /var/tmp/temproot ready for use
*** Creating and populating directory structure in /var/tmp/temproot
make: don't know how to make distrib-dirs. Stop
*** FATAL ERROR: Cannot 'cd' to /usr/src/etc and install files to the
temproot environment
