Simon Just came back from miniature vacation and has this to add:
a. I last built EXACTLY on the 27th. This is when it failed.
b. Warner has a point (I cannot say anything about his release built
veterancy :-)
Although the make release should work in isolation, it assumes certain
things. Because I have the need to cuncurrently build and maintain both
2.2 and 3.0, i have the following setup:
a. I run cvsup on src-all twice a day, and just before a build.
b. In /usr/src, i have a directory 2.2 and a directory 3.0.
c. In each directory I have ports and src, each containing what you
would expect (examplel /usr/src/3.0/src contains what a -current
machine would normally have in /usr/src.
If I want to build, say 2.2 (the machine is -current), I do this:
cd /usr/src
rm *
ln -s /usr/src/2.2/src/* .
cd 2.2/src
make buildworld > ../build.out 2>&1&
tail -f ../build.out
If I want to build a release;
cd /usr/src/2.2/src/release
<edit Makefile to have correct destinations>
make release > ../../release.out 2>&1&
tail -f ../../release.out
If this is wrong, tell me where. It seems to work fine most of the
time.
