Indeed we had NO_GAMES configured in make.conf, but somewhere it changed to NOGAMES (no underscore). The rest of the NO options are preceded by an underscore.

Trying this again, and reported the problem from the cvs commit to the committer :) _F At 11:46 AM 1/25/2001 -0800, Dustin Harris wrote: >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.
