This was a problem for a _very_ short while in 4.6-STABLE or 4.7-PRELELEASE/RC. It lasted no more than seven (7) days, and I'm pretty sure it's less. 2. You're ignoring later messages from mergemaster. Do you wish to delete what is left of /var/tmp/temproot? [no] yes rm: /var/tmp/temproot/var/empty: Operation not permitted rm: /var/tmp/temproot/var: Directory not empty rm: /var/tmp/temproot: Directory not empty *** /var/tmp/temproot has been deleted I strongly suggest you cvsup from a known good source and try again. -- Greg White To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
