I don't know how many people is thinking about release procedure, but please give me some notes... with this change, we cannot do 'make release' -current in a -stable environment (and vice versa, maybe). Reason: In a 'make release', all building procedures are done in a chroot-ed environment (great!). However, 'make release' does 'make installworld' (in a chroot-ed environment) before building the distribution; so there is a potential problem that tools used in building procedure does not work on the running kernel (chroot-ed environment does not load yet another kernel :-). I don't know how to build the contents of current.freebsd.org, but maybe it requires two individual machines to build both -current/-stable release... -- - Makoto `MAR' MATSUSHITA To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
