Just one more data point: the exact same thing happened to me. I started CTM around September 1997, and I'm absolutely sure I didn't mess up with anything in libgmp ever since. Like Matthew I had to do the above "mkdir -p" to get the patch to apply (then I got my surprise with the whole bunch of stuff it was deleting, that's the combination of all this which prompted me to ask the list if everything was ok with the deletions). It's possible there was a minor sync problem between the complete CTM archive I started from (I believe it was 3000 or 3100) and the source tree. I'll have a look at home if I still have it lying around (I doubt it). I'm not sure it's worth the bother to have a closer look at where the problem might come from, unless it happens again in the future. Again, I'm mentioning this as just one more data point in case it can help, I'm not complaining. On the whole, CTM is a very reliable way to receive updates. -- Pierre.Beyssac@hsc.fr To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
