Waste of time and of no relevance to the problem. If you want to do something again to ensure currency, remove and cvsup your sources. > Have only used mergemaser once, and somehow everything became a mess. Having used it many times in many situations since before it was part of the system and given the lack of any avalanch of reports on the lists, I'm quite confident you messed it up and that mergmaster works very well. > Now I just compare timestamps and do it manually. You are certainly missing some steps which mergmaster handles. No comment on recompiling /etc/rc. I suggest following my earlier advice and running mergmaster. -Andrew- -- _______________________________________________________________________ | -Andrew J.
