            Bug ID: 260822
           Summary: /usr/src/Makefile needs to be updated for etcupdate in
                    comments
           Product: Base System
           Version: 13.0-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: antonfb@hesiod.org

The comments in /usr/src/Makefile regarding building from source still
reference mergemaster and not etcupdate. Following these instructions can
corrupt system configuration. These comments need to be updated for etcupda=
te
and remove mergemaster.  Probably also pointing at the handbook would be a =
good
idea since this is more complicated now, re: initializing etcupdate prior to
updating source code.
