In message <20010831131627.A86427@xor.obsecurity.org> Kris Kennaway writes: : I couldn't figure out how to do this without adding in .include : "../Makefile.inc" on a couple hundred directories to tie them into one : big tree so they all have an include path back to /usr/src/world.conf : or whatever you want to call it. Having the file only read by make : world isn't really acceptible because building parts of the source : tree is a common developer activity and needs to use the same file. I've invested about 50 hours at work trying to figure this out. I wound up using Makefile.up (in place of Makefile.inc) and that one could easily find the top of the tree. It works well in our small tree at work, but I don't think that it would work well in FreeBSD's tree. We also have a symbolic link for all the various copies of Makefile.up in the repo... If there's an easier way to deal, then I'd love to know :-) Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
