I was wondering why they sets MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX at all. If they don't set it, then they would use the bootstrap tools that were already created. Regardless of the final fix in mergemaster and etcupdate, we also need to change the instructions in UPDATING. Users need to run "sh usr.sbin/mergemaster/mergemaster.sh -p" as that's the only way we can reliably survive requirement changes in the source tree. Does this seem like a generally acceptable change? -- Brooks P.S. In addition to requiring install -l, I'm planning to change HEAD to require nmtree in the not to distant future so that we can eliminate the last duplicate entries in METALOG by only listing each directly once in a .mtree file so it would be good to get this sorted out soon. --Fig2xvG2VGoz8o/s Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFRSM69XY6L6fI4GtQRAm+dAJ9U9fwgNPmV0N366rXrmN5Ly8kGEACeLHWK 1TeCfp4a+LMruwT5sAoRrkE= =agXo -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Fig2xvG2VGoz8o/s--
