This is an increasingly popular answer to builds that fail. Perhaps we should look a little more deeply into how that can happen in the first place. I mean, a buildworld sets off on a flurry of file removals when it starts up. Why would it miss some? And "cvs update" with the "-Pd" switches should keep your source tree clean. In my case, I keep /usr/obj mounted on its own small filesystem because: A) A newfs is =much= faster that the above mentioned removals. 2) I mount it async, which saved around an hour in the pre-softupdate days. So I don't usually worry about sludge in /usr/obj. But we still must wonder about sludge in the source tree, short of someone manually putting things there (and then cvs will make note of it). > Kris -crl -- Chad R.
