The symptoms are the failing of build, ending in a 'Cannot cd to xxxx'. I normally use bash2 (05b) but it also seem to occur with tcsh. >How-To-Repeat: export CDPATH=~:/usr:/usr/local cd /usr/src && make installworld cd /usr/ports/ftp/proftpd && make >Fix: I think _unsetting_ the CDPATH in de mk-files is advisable. At least a warning or doc-change would do the trik. I didn't look into the actual cause. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
