It seems that your source code location is /home/src. Woo-hoo! I finally got a 'make release' to work! Thanks for everyone's pointers... I had to pre-install on my base system the MINIMALDOCPORTS snarl of stuff, and given that a dozen or so distfiles are hosted on Sourceforge, so you can't make an automated install of them. Maybe I should pester the mailtainers of those respective ports... It was rather disappointing that I couldn't run 'make release' in parallel via the '-j' option, though. :/ One last question, that only vaguely applies to this topic: How disparate can the host OS version be from the version I'm trying to make a release of? (My host OS is 4.5-RELEASE; what the 'newest' version of the OS that I could sucessfully perform a 'make release' of without upgrading? Still scrounging various docs...) > -- - > Makoto `MAR' Matsushita > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message -- Brian 'you Bastard' Reichert 37 Crystal Ave. #303 Daytime number: (603) 434-6842 Derry NH 03038-1713 USA Intel architecture: the left-hand path To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
