I don't know if these problems have already been reported, but...

I've been trying to get all my machines up to a common version of
-stable, so I've been installing the `release' version off the CD-ROM
and then supping the -stable over it.

I found that this causes problems because there's a new option to
install, `-C', that isn't in the release version, and this causes the
installs to fail, since the old install is used until the new one is
installed.

I got around this by making and manually installing the new version of
install.

Another problem I had is that in /usr/src/lib/libdisk, the Makefile
had the following:


MAN3=           libdisk.3
MLINKS+=        libdisk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Open_Disk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Clone_Disk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Free_Disk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Debug_Disk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Set_Bios_Geom.3 \
                libdisk.3 Delete_Chunk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Collapse_Disk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Collapse_Chunk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Create_Chunk.3 \
                libdisk.3 All_FreeBSD.3 \
  .
  .
  .
etc.

This caused installing the man pages to fail, and I could only get
things to work by changing that to the following:

MAN3=           libdisk.3
MLINKS+=        \
                libdisk.3 Open_Disk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Clone_Disk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Free_Disk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Debug_Disk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Set_Bios_Geom.3 \
                libdisk.3 Delete_Chunk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Collapse_Disk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Collapse_Chunk.3 \
                libdisk.3 Create_Chunk.3 \
                libdisk.3 All_FreeBSD.3 \
etc.
