This presumably isn't a problem for using make world, but it bites you every time if you're rebuilding using 'make all' (which is much quicker, and usually works just fine). This is not the supported way to do things, I know, but is this problem easy to fix? Remaking perl also seems to spend a lot of time rebuilding manpages and so forth which haven't changed..I guess this is a side-effect of the generally ugly build process for PERL which I've heard rumours about :-) Kris To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
