Has anyone noted that the Australian cvs repository seems to be so hopelessly out of sink that you cannot do a clean build using a clean cvsup. I have just tried to cvsup from cvsup.au.FreeBSD.org after deleting all of the src tree and also any cvs log/check files so that it was basically a clean cvs. After repeatedly trying to buildkernel and having constant failures at different points I did a little more digging and found in one case that the .h file was adrift of the matching .c file and after getting a later version of the .h file which fixed one error, it then broke somewhere else in the build. So back to the drawing board and start again with a fresh cvs, this time from cvsup17.FreeBSD.org. Problem fixed, buildkernel went through without missing a beat. After having done all that I then remembered why I gave up on the Australian cvs repository years ago although I had forgotten why until now, it was exactly because of the above problem. Regards, Robert McKenzie.
