You either look at the output of cvsup -L 2 and update the affected bits by hand, or you ``make world'' if you're as lazy as the rest of us. There's no automated mechanism for only building updated bits. Some people may tell you to ``make -DNOCLEAN world''. These people are confused about what NOCLEAN is for and I urge you to find out exactly what the implications are before listening to them. > do I make update or just make or what? No. The update target is just a mechanism to allow you to update your source tree conveniently. It's not much more convenient than running cvsup, and you'll need to play with settings in your /etc/make.conf to make it work. Probably not worth worrying about. Hope this helps. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.
