Greetings, I believe that is correct behaviour. In fact, when you do a make in that directory, you should see a warning that the directory is not changed. e.g. Warning: Object directory not changed from original /usr/src/usr.sbin/makemap There is a variable that can be set to change the build direcrtory to the one with /usr/obj prefix. I think MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX or DESTDIR or something like that. (sorry, don't have the correct answer) Regards, /calvin lines with :> are quotes from Mike Zanker's email :> I've recently come back to FreeBSD after a couple of years' absence. :> I'm now running/tracking 4.3-STABLE but I have noticed that after a :> cvsup if I change to the source directory of a utility that, say, one :> source file has changed in and do a "make", all files get recompiled - :> not just the one that changed.
