Cvsup what, the stanard file to upgrade your base system? You =20 don't need mergemaster unless you cvsup your base system, and if you =20 did that and merged the new files, thats bad. You should rebuild the =20 world and the kernel then install them. And don't cvsup unless you =20 intend to upgrade your base system. That can put things out of sink. >=20 > On Mon, 14 Mar 2005 02:29:10 +0000, Jason Henson <jason@ec.rr.com> > wrote: > > On 03/13/05 17:08:56, masterkev28 masterkev28 wrote: > > > Hello everyone, > > > When I do mergemaster -ia, I get the following errors: > > > > > > *** The directory specified for the temporary root environment, > > > /var/tmp/temproot, exists.
