I was bringing my new machine to current, and during the virginal make world, noticed it stopped while in gdb/doc. I went back to my main machine, did a make clean there, and found it too stopped in gdb/doc. Assuming for the moment that this _is_ broken .... It seems that a file from gdb/readline named rluser.texinfo isn't being brought in, that seems to be causing it. The way that gdb is organized, tho, makes me wonder what the right fix is. Normally, I thought that stuff that has sources based in contrib was supposed to use those sources directly as much as possible, but gdb doesn't seem to do that; most of the sources for gdb have been committed to the /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/gdb hierarchy, so they exist twice, once in /usr/src/contrib, and again in /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/gdb. The one exception to this is that rluser.texinfo file. The Makefile in gdb/doc forces an include of the usr.bin/gdb/readline/doc, but the rluser.texinfo is in /usr/src/contrib/gdb/readline/doc. Either moving the include line to point at the contrib stuff, or copying the rluser.texinfo to the tree sources would fix it. For gdb, which is the right way to go? ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@eng.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 9120 Edmonston Ct #302 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run Journey2 and picnic, both FreeBSD (301) 220-2114 | version 3.0 current -- and great FUN! ----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
