However, I have never tried to install all the |sources, and then start deleting stuff and still expect compiles to work. |:-) | |There's at least one reference to ../../../include/ in my .depend file, so |you would be well off keeping /usr/src/include, as it's only 616K on my |Dec 18 3.4-STABLE system. Keeping lib/ as well, would probably be a good |idea, although you'll likely be able to get along without it. | |Basically, Duke, what you might want to do, in the name of experimental |science, is try to delete all the directories under /usr/src/ BUT sys/, |include/ and lib/, and see if you can successfully make a kernel. If not, |rm -rf /usr/src and start installing distributions again :-) | |According to the defaults in sysinstall, the "kern-developer" option just |installs the sys source option... No includes or lib... But I've never |installed a system with partial sources, so I can't say for sure where |dependencies lie. I'm not as familiar with the source tree as many of the |people here, though. Thanks for the input...If worse come comes to worse, I'll simply re-install "in the name of experimental science" :-))LOL BTW, is this message butchered at your end? later....duke To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
