That's the solution. In fairness, many folks often skip mergemaster -p without ill effect till something like this happens. There have been many posts about this. One could argue back and forth or submit a patch for UPDATING. The pro side of adding it is that there have been a lot of posts similar to this and it is considered a server O/S not a hobbyist O/S, and busy sysadmins who have been updating for a long time and not bitten by ignoring mergemaster -p (I forget the last time it caught a lot of people--was it with the authpf?--in a long time, should probably be reminded by a note in UPDATING. The con side is that if you're updating to a PRERELEASE, you're more a tester and/or developer as it's probably not a good idea to update to it on a production server. Having said this, I can smugly say that I wasn't bitten by it, because I learned my lesson the last time, and have a little installworld.sh script that runs mergemaster -p before doing installworld. I'm also too lazy to submit a patch for UPDATING, and will just say, Hey Warner or someone, you oughta put a note about it in there. All whimsicality aside, this sort of thing is the reason that it really is better to not skip mergemaster -p before doing installworld--if there's nothing for it to do, it only takes a minute, even on a slower machine. - -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Buffy: Okay, well, how long before you un-crypt it?
