I checked make.conf already, since that is usually the cause when I have such problems. I didn't know about src.conf, I'll have a look at its manpage (so, since I don't have one, that can't be the cause of my problem either). >> I'll wipe out /usr/src as well and re-cvsup, then build from single user >> mode for minimal intervention by shells and environments and see whether >> that might help. > > I don't see how booting single-user is going to help with any of this. I was finally able to do a buildworld by doing it from single user mode. My guess is that the root of the problem was with either the shell I was using or some environment variables. Going to single user mode was just the safest way to remove all those possible effects, since I'm not quite sure how to do it in another way. But I agree, single user mode itself is not likely to help other than that. > And do not forget to remove /var/db/sup/src-all if you remove all of > /usr/src. People often forget this fact. I forgot it as well :-) Thanks, Tobias -- Tobias Roth || http://fsck.ch || PGP: 0xCE599B4D | You can't have everything. Where would you put it? | - Steven Wright
