I may have forgotten or added extra .. above. Well, there seems to be a few problems with this. Like tcl being listed in the Makefiles under src/contrib as a target, but src/contrib is EMPTY. At least in the supped copy I got from sup.freebsd.org when grabbing the collection cvs-supfile it is... Have people actually tried building this starting with: 1) A USER load of the operating system (no ports, etc) 2) A Supped copy of the CVS tree? What am I missing here? The problem isn't incompatibile utilities any longer; I got beyond that. The problem now is that it appears that there are dependancies listed in the makefiles that no longer exist! -- -- Karl Denninger (karl@MCS.Net)| MCSNet - The Finest Internet Connectivity http://www.mcs.net/~karl | T1 from $600 monthly; speeds to DS-3 available | 23 Chicagoland Prefixes, 13 ISDN, much more Voice: [+1 312 803-MCS1] | Email to "info@mcs.net" WWW: http://www.mcs.net/ Fax: [+1 312 248-9865] | Home of Chicago's only FULL Clarinet feed!
