https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=292130 Bug ID: 292130 Summary: NO_CLEAN knob documentation vs WITH_CLEAN Product: Base System Version: 15.0-STABLE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: misc Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: adridg@freebsd.org In the 15.0 tree (also in main / CURRENT) the top-level Makefile.inc1 in src (https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/tree/Makefile.inc1?h=releng/15.0) says this on lines 4 and 481 respectively: ``` # -DNO_CLEAN do not clean at all .info The src.conf WITHOUT_CLEAN option can now be used instead of NO_CLEAN. ``` But the documentation for `src.conf` (https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=src.conf&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+15.0-RELEASE&arch=default&format=html) only mentions a `WITH_CLEAN`, and the `UPDATING` file says (since 20240729) that no-clean is the default these days. The documentation ought to be consistent; I think that means that the Makefile.inc1 should not mention NO_CLEAN or WITHOUT_CLEAN, but possibly add a line in the documentation section at the top saying "WITH_CLEAN=yes clean the object directory before starting". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
