I had some buildworld failures earlier this week. In src/share/man/man8 the Makefile includes code to get the sysinstall.8 manpage. Since the manpage lives in src/release, this requires that you CVSup src-release. I had not been. This broke buildworld which had worked in the past. sysinstall.8 is the only file in src-release that is required for a buildworld. It seems somewhat silly to me that you are required to grab the whole thing for that one file. I made the change to the Makefile which makes sysinstall.8 and src-release optional. I included it in a reply to the PR that precipitated the change, http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=19818 Steven G. Kargl ealier, independently submitted the almost exact same thing, http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=24122 In a separate PR. Anyone have a good reason why everyone _must_ have src-release to buildworld? -- Crist J.
