The following reply was made to PR misc/75864; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Brooks Davis <brooks@one-eyed-alien.net> To: "Eli K. Breen" <eli@gopostal.ca> Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Subject: Re: misc/75864: FreeBSD 5.3 kern-developer install does not add Makefile in /usr/src Date: Wed, 5 Jan 2005 12:44:32 -0800 Installing just the Makefile would serve no purpose. The point of buildkernel is that it can use the tools from buildworld to make the kernel. That requires all the sources. The old method of building kernels must be used unless you are going to install all sources. IMO, this is documentation bug. -- Brooks
