I look through the CVSup log to see if anything "major" has been changed. If so I "make world" in the evening (which takes about 9 hours on my machine). If the changes were rather simple I do a "make -DNOCLEAN buildworld", which takes about an hour to figure out what needs to be done and then build a couple of programs. After that completes, do a "make installworld". Remember, though, the hierarchial makefile structure is complicated and sometimes not everything will get built without the clean (libraries seem to be a common stumbling point. > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > Tony Russell Mobile:+27(83)264-0107 > Technical Manager Voice:+27(21)689-7090 > mailto:tony@oct.co.za http://www.oct.co.za > Open Computer Technology (Pty) Ltd - Cape Town - South Africa > -crl -- Chad R.
