Dear fellows,
I have installed FreeBSD 3.1 and it has been working fine for the last
10 months. I like to upgrade to release 4.0. So I used cvs to update the
src, doc and crypto. I started 'make world' after the source update.
The process run for a while and then aborted with the following errors.
The error message give here is the last lines displayed before the stop
code.
-----Error Message Begin here -----
install-info --quiet --defsection="Programming & development tools."
--defentry="* libcom_err: (com_err).
 A common Error Description Library for UNIX. com_err.info
/usr/share/info/dir
install-info: unrecognised option `--defsection=Programming &
development tools
Try `install-info --help` for a complete list of options.

*** Error code 1

hostname:username#_
----Error message ends -----

Can anyone identify what is causing the problem.
Because the 'make world' did not complete I only can boot into my old
kernel.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Also is there any way I can capture the message displayed on the console
screen so I can email it as attachment instead of typing the error
message.
Regards
Emmanuel Dwamena
