No - it does not. I have no idea why not, as I've certainly never removed ANY copy of mkdep from ANY directory - I wonder if there's a problem with the 4.5-RELEASE distro not installing it by default with an installation from CD? I'm most of the way through an installation of gcc32 from /usr/ports/lang/gcc32 now. I see that it's already placed a copy of mkdep in its work directory, so this should fix the problem, I would assume. Has anybody else ever noticed mkdep missing for some strange reason from a BSD installation? Incidentally, not only was mkdep missing from /usr/bin, when I performed a find / -iname mkdep, it was only discovered in /usr/src/usr.bin and a couple of work directories for one random port or another. Most strange indeed... -J ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jonathan Chen" <jonc@chen.org.nz> To: "Jimbo" <jimbo@jimbosworld.org> Cc: <freebsd-questions@freebsd.org> Sent: Monday, May 20, 2002 10:21 PM Subject: Re: kernel won't compile > [Please don't remove Cc:freebsd-questions] > > On Mon, May 20, 2002 at 09:54:39PM -0400, Jimbo wrote: > > When I do that, I get an error 127 from mkdep concerning its attempt to > > mkdep -f .depend -a /usr/src/games/fortune/strfile/strfile.c. > > > > I'm at a real loss here. =( > > > > -J > > > > PS: I think I've got it...
