What is in there does not compile, I get the exact same error that this person has reported, and this is on a prestine RELENG_2_1_0 compile engine.... this error occured during a ``make world'', so if _vendor_daemon_setup is suppose to be defined someplace else we have a build cycle problem, if sendmail is suppose to have source code for this, someone missed a piece of the patch :-(. PLEASE FIX ASAP, as all -Stable users trying to update via the normal mechanisms to fix the sendmail security problem are going to have builds that blow up in there face. > Thanks, > > Charles > > On Sun, 17 Nov 1996, Eric Allman wrote: > > > This patch is against 8.8.2, not 8.7.6.
