I downloaded 2.2.6-release. acquired cvsup, and grabbed the whole source tree, or at least what corresponds to src-all. Tried a make "buildworld" and the top level make file blew up all over the place. Parse errors due to environment variables like MACHINE_ARCH or BINFORMAT not being defined. I figured it might be due to the 'old' make. Tried making just that bugger. No dice, couldn't link cause __error was missing. What library would that be from? So what is the proper series of steps one needs to follow to move from the release to -current? -------- "If I were called upon to identify briefly the principal trait of the 20th Century, here too I would be unable to find anything more precise and pithy than to repeat once again: Men have forgotten God." - Aleksander Solzhenitsyn To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
