* I keep running into the same problem making many of the x11 'stable' * ports. It can't find the BSD.x11.dist file. It's not on my 2.2.2 CD * either. This is after I tried using cvsup for ports-all. (my prior * message). This was due to the mixup in the release process. It has since been fixed, but 2.2.2 went out without BSD.x11.dist in /etc/mtree. * What's the 'best' way to get the up-to-date files and keep them current? It should be in the source distribution (/usr/src/etc/mtree/BSD.x11.dist). Or, you can get the "2.2.2-to-2.2-stable-upgrade-kit" you can get from "http://www.freebsd.org/ports/". * Also, after my first 2-day marathon 'make world' following the 2.2.2 CD * and then multiple cvsup's for stable, do I do a 'make world' after each * cvsup? Will it run much faster now, i.e. only do makes for the * downloaded updates or is there a better way to rebuild my system after * weekly cvsup's? I'll let someone else answer that. If you already have the source tree, you should probably just go to /usr/src/etc/mtree and copy BSD.*.dist to /etc/mtree. * I guess I'm starting to get a FreeBSD addition. ;-) Oh yes, it's addictive. I can attest to that. :) Satoshi
