Subject: Re: mtree confused?

Precedence: bulk

 * 	While building the world, I see the following messages from mtree:
 * 
 * mtree -deU -f /usr/src/etc/mtree/BSD.include.dist  -p /usr/include
 * missing: ./machine (not created: File exists)
 * missing: ./net (not created: File exists)
 * missing: ./netccitt (not created: File exists)
 * missing: ./netinet (not created: File exists)
 * 
 * 
 * 	Now, how come the file can be both missing and exsisting???

Hehe, I assume you didn't try "ls -l /usr/include"? :)

P.S. They are symlinks....
