Well, will try that ... There is no point trying to convert from 2.2.anything to current due to bootstrap breakage in current. This was introduced when changes were made to rpcgen which required current headers. The initial bootstrap must use the _installed_ headers and libraries to build the tools that are needed to build the includes and the libraries. Any change to tools like rpcgen which cannot use the installed headers and libraries shouldn't be committed. The include files should only be installed with the libraries they match. Doing a `make includes' on its own will _cause_ a mismatch. Until the breakage is fixed, it is best to go though the upgrade procedure with 3.0-RELEASE sources. There is no way you can upgrade with current. -- John Birrell - jb@cimlogic.com.au; jb@freebsd.org http://www.cimlogic.com.au/ CIMlogic Pty Ltd, GPO Box 117A, Melbourne Vic 3001, Australia +61 418 353 137 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
