From: asami@FreeBSD.ORG (Satoshi Asami) Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG * It almost is. You have to set BINOWN, BINGRP, SHAREOWN and SHAREGRP * to something that you can shown to, Any reason why we don't want to add something to the buildworld environment that will make this the default? (Like, BINOWN=`id -u`, etc.) * and you have to have write permissions * to /usr/obj/your-usr-src or set MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX to somewhere you can * write to. Well, that's a given. I don't think people are stupid enough to not be able to figure that out. ;) * It's almost worked for a year or two. I don't know why I thought there * was no problem with schg flags. schg is currently used for a whole 2 * 2 files under ${WORLDTMP} (libc.so.M.m and libc_r.so.M.m), and buildworld * by non-root crashes about half way through when the first of these is * installed. It shouldn't be to hard to add a flag to disable these, too. Satoshi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
