There are various ways of solving this problem, Andrey, and you may rest assured that various people will be looking into all of them. As I told everyone on hackers: I'm not saying that it's wrong to try and solve this problem, it's just wrong to try and do so at the last minute every time. Our margins are exhausted and the solution isn't to keep pecking it down just under the limit - we've proven that doesn't work, were it not already obviously a flawed strategy! :) As for now, you might try it anyway. Apparently, it does install for some people - we're hovering that much on the knife-edge.

For a variety of reasons, it is not possible generate and install the handbook and FAQ from either current or stable (2.1) on a 2.0.5 system. In fact, this will cause a make world to fall over. It was suggested that the generation of the docs be postponed to the install phase. This will not work because share/doc is installed before share/sgml and usr.bin/sgmlfmt. Until the processing procedures of sgml files stablizes, which I don't expect it will until after 2.2, I would recommend that usr.bin/sgmlfmt and share/sgml be installed in the tools target. (sgmlfmt is just a perl script, BTW.) This is important because a make world WILL FAIL for anyone anyone upgrading from 2.0.5 or earlier, to 2.1 (or current) by rebuilding from source. Once 2.1 hits the net, I expect a fair amount of mail will come in regarding this problem. -john == jfieber@indiana.edu =========================================== == http://fieber-john.campusview.indiana.edu/~jfieber ============ From owner-freebsd-stable Tue Oct 31 11:55:35 1995 Return-Path: owner-stable Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) id LAA20259 for stable-outgoing; Tue, 31 Oct 1995 11:55:35 -0800 Received: from george.lbl.gov (george.lbl.gov [128.3.196.93]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) with ESMTP id LAA20254 for ; Tue, 31 Oct 1995 11:55:33 -0800 Received: (jin@localhost) by george.lbl.gov (8.6.10/8.6.5) id LAA16334 for stable@freebsd.org; Tue, 31 Oct 1995 11:55:26 -0800 Date: Tue, 31 Oct 1995 11:55:26 -0800 From: "Jin Guojun[ITG]" Message-Id: <199510311955.LAA16334@george.lbl.gov> To: stable@freebsd.org Subject: minor installer bug Content-Length: 278 Sender: owner-stable@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk In the latest 2.1-SNAP boot.flp, there is a minor installer bug in the express procedure.
