Hi folks, on /some/ of my nodes, META_MODE seems not being honored anymore: I had to build them another time, and the lengthy lib/clang gets built all over again (tried two times). This is so since 13.2 (BETA2). It did work in 13.1 (RELENG), at least according to the timing from the logfiles. Now I'm trying to figure out the difference, because I have some nodes where it appears to more-or-less work (have seen buildworld take 5 minutes), and others where it doesn't (take an hour to build). The thing is scripted, so it is not so very likely an operator error (while not impossible either). But it seems difficult to figure out details: "make -n" seems to not care about META_MODE, while META_MODE suppresses all useful output from make. And the docs say there are *.meta files (yes there are), but no info about how to verify their content, or how to get make tell what it is going to do and why (and the buildworld is not the most easy to understand target)... So, some inspiration would be welcome... PMc
