In your specific case, It takes about 1 minute to test if you have things set up to build releases.

The world target is simply an >insufficient test if you're going to go modifying the *.mk files (or I don't normally use the world target either :-). You're wrong that *.mk have much to do with the release makefile. Except for the DISTRIBUTION targets (which I won't go near), *.mk is about dependencies, building and installing standard things. The chroot in release/Makefile reduces these problems to the same ones faced by `make world'. >This is also not a question of me blowing away your changes without >review, this is a case of you breaking the tree and me fixing it >again, pure and simple, and I think I'm entirely justified in saying >*please don't do that*. Producing snapshots and trying to serve the Well, I have been testing the de-grossing change in -current since January, and I asked you to fix it properly then, with no results. Bruce
