Hrmph. The problems you see are a result of breakage that should be fixed. Note that if we build docs standalone, we'd need to do some extra work to make release docs available from the sysinstall doc menu (they need to be in the mfsroot). (On the other hand, I have some infrastructure to help build docs separately, if we decide to do this.) > I guess I'll build DP2 w/o any docs or ports for now. If you do that, can I suggest some workarounds? Use the pre-built release documentation files from the RELNOTESng snapshot site. Go to: http://people.freebsd.org/~bmah/relnotes/5.0-DP2/ Grab the relevant files (there should be six documents...three are MI and three are MD). A "normal" release with docs would have 13 RELNOTESng files (HTML and TXT for each of six documents, plus the CSS). I can make up tarball(s) for you if this would help? Also, you should be able to grab the regular doc distribution from the i386 bits. > The docs don't > build on sparc64 anyway w/o the binutils import. OK, well on that platform, that trumps our whole conversation. :-p Bruce. --==_Exmh_-521545596P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.0 (FreeBSD) Comment: Exmh version 2.5+ 20020506 iD8DBQE92oos2MoxcVugUsMRAtv4AJ9WjTr9uXx8IHqEKP0jhUI0ShYa5ACdGR2k F7xXf14uxLUWmjyn7goexMM= =U6PW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_-521545596P-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ia64" in the body of the message
