Look there, and you will find some descriptions. For usual makefiles in ports and elsewhere, the usual cycle is make (fetch and extract source if nessecary) then compile, link This produces a executable and other stuff in the source and object tree ready to install make install puts the stuff made above in the right place and sets proper permissions and more. make clean removes the stuff made in "make" from the source and/or object tree. The installed stuff remains. In /usr/src: make world = make buildworld + make install This creates all binaries and libraries of the whole o/s. make buildmost + make installmost makes all binaries, but not libraries.

Look in /usr/src/Makefile Leif Neland leifn@image.dk --- |Fidonet: Leif Neland 2:234/49 |Internet: leifn@image.dk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
