X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 11 Jan 2004 00:17:43 -0000 I have just run make buildworld on '4 stable' (4.9) and with make installworld I get a ton of missing files, such as libvgl_p.a /usr/lib, all follwing the same pattern where a .a file exists but the corresponding _p.a file in the same lib directory. What's up with that and what are those pesky files?
