HI, 

It has been reported that this is the procedure to follow when updating and
patching:

less /usr/src/UPDATING
cd /usr/obj
chflags -R noschg *
rm -rf usr
ls -la
cd /usr/src
make cleandir && make cleandir 
make buildworld
make buildkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC
make installkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC
reboot
boot -s
fsck -p
mount -t ufs -a
swapon -a
cd /usr/src
make installworld
mergemaster -v
reboot
cd /usr/src/release/sysinstall
make clean
make all install clean



But after one does make buildkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC, the screen says to
not forget to make depend.  But this algorhythm includes no such step.
Which is correct, to do "make depend" or not to do it, and why?

Thank you

ERic
