No idea (sorry), but in this particular case you could always do something like # cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail # cp -p Makefile makefile # vi makefile edit ``install'' target into a no-op The idea is that make reads makefile instead of Makefile. You may have to stick ``makefile'' in /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail/.cvsignore to prevent cvsup from removing makefile.
