After lots of head-scratching, I'm only marginally further towards moving my 3.x system over to 4.x. I've successfully managed to upgrade the system to RELENG_3_5_0_STABLE, and the build went smoothly - as described in the docs. I figured that if I upgraded to something a bit more recent first then made a jump to say, RELENG_4_0_0_RELEASE, things would be less error-prone. No such luck. My build still dies in the exact same spot - building the include for libobjc - where it attempts to copy nonexistent .h files from out of /usr/src/contrib/gcc/objc. Now, I can almost guarantee that my /usr/src is exactly what's tagged as RELENG_4_0_0_RELEASE because I cleaned out the whole thing and used anoncvs to grab the sources. Comparing with what I see on www.freebsd.org via their CVS web interface seems to indicate what's there and what's here are the same (that wasn't so when I used cvsup). So my question is, how did they ever manage to actually build that 4.0 CD anyway? :-) Anyone ever run into this libobjc problem? I love the language (all of our commercial apps are written in it), but I'd just as soon dump the thing on our FreeBSD boxen if it would get me a 4.x kernel. Regards, Mark ps. please cc me on any replies, thanks! --- GLYPHIX Diagramming for Mac OS X http://homepage.mac.com/glyphix To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
