According to the newvers.sh file, I have the version I expected:
REVISION="4.2"
BRANCH="STABLE"
According to the UPDATING file, the process and commands that I issued
appear to be proper:
To update from 3.x to 4.x stable
--------------------------------
<see notes below> [3]
cd /usr/src
<see notes below> [2]
make buildworld
<follow directions to build/install a kernel>
...
[2] If you have any of the following in your /etc/make.conf,
please comment them out before following these instructions
and then do a make buildworld + make installworld after you
are back to <multi-user> above:
MAKE_KERBEROS4
[3] Update to 4.x-stable sources. Make sure that you get all
the parts. If you are using cvsup files that are older than a
couple of months, be sure they have all the components listed
in /usr/share/examples/cvsup. Crypto and secure are now
required.
Now then, according to the UPDATING file, this note claims that miniperl
is no longer used, yet that is what I am stopped by:
20001006:
The perl build procedure no longer installs miniperl, nor uses
the installed miniperl. It is recommended that you delete
/usr/bin/miniperl.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks in advance - Marc
