Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Recently, I tried building a port, and got the following: ===> fvwm95-2.0.43a : Your system is too old to use this bsd.port.mk. You need a fresh make world or an upgrade kit. Please go to http://www.freebsd.org/ports/ or a mirror site and follow the instructions. My version info is: iridium# uname -a FreeBSD iridium.hgs.yale.edu 3.1-STABLE FreeBSD 3.1-STABLE #2: Thu Feb 25 23:20:33 EST 1999 do33@iridium.hgs.yale.edu:/usr/src/sys/compile/IRIDIUM i386 Is it better to use the upgrade kit, or should I make world? If make world is the better option, is the upgrade process the same as doing it in 2.2.x, i.e. make changes to /etc, then make buildworld, make installworld? Also, I notice some people were saying they were using the DNOAOUT flag. Is it necessary to set that when doing a make buildworld on a 3.1-S system? Thanks.
