That looks good.
But there shouldn't be any directories in your tree named "Attic", and
there shouldn't be any files named "*,v". I think that at some
point when you were first experimenting with CVSup, you must have
done an update without the "tag=." statement in your supfile.
I recommend that you do this to clean it up:
cd /src
find . \( -name '*,v' -o -name .depend -o -type l \) -print | xargs rm -f
find -d . -name Attic | xargs rm -rf
cd /usr/obj
rm -rf * # (You will get some error messages -- don't worry
chflags -R 0 *
rm -rf * # (Yes, again)
Now do another CVSup update just for good measure. Then try your
make world, and I think it will work this time.
Good luck,
John
