Some notes. I agree, but this target isn't usual: it is meant for tinderboxing, not for release building. If you prefer the name can be changed to "tinderbox" or similar. The idea is that hopefully this target will result in our tree being more buildable more of the time. Being able to do a "make universe" before you go to bed, and know that your changes has at least not broken any compiles will be a significant step forward in this respect. >I would not hardcode the __MAKE_CONF=3D/dev/null thing; it sometimes >makes sense to rebuild all worlds with the same set of /etc/make.conf >options. See above. >The "universe" as it is now does not handle i386:pc98. I tried and you cannot make a buildworld in pc98, only kernels, I can add the pc98 kernels if there is concensus. >Attempting to cross-build kernels without a working cross-tools chain >is going nowhere, so ignoring "errors from the individual steps" does >not work well. For a tinderboxing target: yes, it makes sense. BTW: I thought about adding the "make release" step as well, but decided against it for now, we should add it later. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 phk@FreeBSD.ORG | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
