On a jail created with ezjail on 10-STABLE, mergemaster is not actually ignoring files set with IGNORE_FILES in the jail's /etc/mergemaster.rc. For example: /usr/jails/whatsit/etc/mergemaster.rc IGNORE_FILES="/boot/device.hints" >From the host: # cd /usr/src ; mergemaster -U -D /usr/jails/whatsit ... *** There is no installed version of ./boot/device.hints Use 'd' to delete the temporary ./boot/device.hints Use 'i' to install the temporary ./boot/device.hints Default is to leave the temporary file to deal with by hand How should I deal with this? [Leave it for later] Using IGNORE_FILES="/usr/jails/whatsit/boot/device.hints" in the jail does not work either. Nor does setting that value in the host's /etc/mergemaster.rc. Is this a problem with mergemaster or the jail setup? From a user standpoint, I would hope that mergemaster would read /etc/mergemaster.rc from the -D directory and use those values rather than the host's /etc/mergemaster.rc. Maybe it does that, but I'm doing it wrong.
