I just learned about CVSup from the article at http://www.samag.com/archive/0809/feature.shtml . I was able to update all my 3.2-RELEASE source files an then attempted a 'make world'. About five minutes into it, it blows up with: . . . rm -rf lib ext Porting hints build rm -f .depend /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/miniperl/GPATH /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/miniperl/GRTAGS /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/miniperl/GSYMS /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/miniperl/GTAGS ===> gnu/usr.bin/perl/perl "Makefile", line 24: Malformed conditional (${PERL_THREADED} == "yes") "Makefile", line 24: Need an operator "Makefile", line 26: if-less endif "Makefile", line 26: Need an operator make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src/gnu. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. su-2.03# I figured the probem is with the file /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/perl/Makefile. I found the reference to '(${PERL_THREADED} == "yes"' in this file but nothing "pops out at me" as being messed up. Can anyone offer a suggestion as to how to proceed? I'd really like to know about the thought process involved, so I can fix problems like this in the future on my own.
