Hello! While updating from 3.3 to 4.0 stable I noticed the following errors: (actually, at first I only read the make world tutorial but not /usr/src/UPDATING. I ran into trouble and finally had to restore the whole system from backup...) ok, here the errors: first, make buildworld stopped and reported a parse error in something/mtree/excludes.c. I looked into this file and found the following "C"-code: [snip] static const char rcsid[] = "$FreeBSD: src/usr.sbin/mtree/excludes.c,v 1.1.2.2 2000/05/16 16:45:34 wollman Exp $"; "$FreeBSD: src/usr.sbin/mtree/excludes.c,v 1.1.2.2 2000/05/16 16:45:34 wollman Exp $"; [snip] I deleted the second line and restarted with "make buildworld -DNOCLEAN". Later I had some trouble with MAKEDEV and some other minor problems. The make buildworld process stopped at an error with install-info which complained about an unrecognized option. This was funny because I installed install-info from the gnu texinfo sources before, according to /usr/src/UPDATING. In the mailinglist archives I found the hint that I should copy install-info from /usr/obj/something to /usr/bin. This was successful and I completed the update finally.
