I wasn't able to build a snap on my 3.4 machine either. We're on the threshold of being able to upgrade 3.x machines to CURRENT properly, although the CURRENT ``world'' has been broken a lot in the last few days. I must admit, I thought we'd already got to the stage where you could fairly easily upgrade from legacy systems. How long ago did you try with CURRENT sources? If more than a day ago, you might very well want to try again? Perhaps you'd like to post the actual error messages you get when you try to upgrade to CURRENT? If so, please post them to the freebsd-current mailing list. Ciao, Sheldon. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
