Try the -DNOGAMES option. --dustin -----Original Message----- From: Forrest Aldrich [mailto:forrie@forrie.com] Sent: Thursday, January 25, 2001 11:41 AM To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Subject: Re: World build failure It seems that it should be configured (in the build process) as a non-fatal error. My opinion: "games" is hardly an important part of the operating system. In fact, why cannot "games" be split into ports, so that they can be maintained differently and otherwise optionally installed. _F At 10:31 PM 1/25/2001 +0300, Odhiambo Washington wrote: >* Forrest Aldrich <forrie@forrie.com> [20010125 22:03]: writing on the >subject 'World build failure' >Forrest> Make world is failing on /usr/src/games/morse (despite my telling >make.conf >Forrest> not to build games).
