peter 95/11/24 17:28:08 Modified: . Makefile Log: Add -DNOCLEAN option which totally and utterly disables any form of cleaning during a make. This may give you more rope to hang yourself if you are caught with some subtle dependency on installed binaries in your build, but if you are doing daily 'make -DNOCLEAN world' it's not too bad at all. It could take as little as 30 minutes to do an entire sync-up of your binaries if everything's up to date, especially if you are using 'INSTALL=install -C' in /etc/make.conf (highly recomended!). Also, add a "reinstall" target. You can do a 'make DESTDIR=/mnt reinstall' where /mnt is the nfs root of a machine and you get the install parts of the make world run on it. I saw this on -hackers quite some time ago and included it in my Makefile and have been using it on and off for a while. Alas, I cannot find the actual message with the author's name...
