The problem started appearing several weeks before the 2.2.7 release. I tried the usual escalation of solutions for make world issues: 1. Re-running CVSUP; 1a. running make clean in the problem directory; 1b. running make clean, make cleandir, make cleandepend in /usr/src; 2. deleting /usr/sup and re-CVSUP'ing; 3. deleting /usr/sup, /usr/obj and /usr/src and re-CVSUP'ing. Nothing worked, so I decided to wait for the 2.2.7 CDROMs to arrive. They did, so I 4. upgraded and tried make world again. I got other make world failures, but after totally cleaning, I usually ended up with the /libgmp parse error message. So, I 5. clean-installed 2.2.7 with new partitions, reinstalled CVSUP from ports, re-CVSUP'd, made world again and got the same error. Normally, I'd suspect hardware (memory) in a situation like this, but I don't see how make world can run for hours and fail repeatably in exactly the same place. Any suggestions before I give up and put the box out to Windows pasture? Thanks, Brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
