Hetzel >Release: FreeBSD 7.x-CURRENT >Organization: >Environment: >Description: Two additional comments were added for the NO_NIS variable in src/share/examples/etc/make.conf. The author of these changes placed two tabs before the comment deliminator(#). When this file is copied to /etc/make.conf, it causes make to report that it can't execute "# If set, you might need to adopt your" and "# nsswitch.conf(5) and remove `nis' entries." Make expects the comment deliminator to be in the first column. I know that some are going to say don't copy the file to /etc/make.conf, but at the top of the file it says: # This file must be in valid Makefile syntax. placing two tabs before the comment deliminator is not valid Makefile syntax. >How-To-Repeat: copy src/share/examples/etc/make.conf to /etc/make.conf then try a buildworld >Fix: Index: make.conf =================================================================== RCS file: /home/ncvs/src/share/examples/etc/make.conf,v retrieving revision 1.269 diff -u -r1.269 make.conf --- make.conf 23 Oct 2005 19:37:55 -0000 1.269 +++ make.conf 22 Nov 2005 07:41:35 -0000 @@ -125,8 +125,8 @@ #NO_MODULES= # do not build modules with the kernel #NO_NETCAT= # do not build netcat #NO_NIS= # do not build NIS support and related programs. - # If set, you might need to adopt your - # nsswitch.conf(5) and remove `nis' entries. +# # If set, you might need to adopt your +# # nsswitch.conf(5) and remove `nis' entries. #NO_OBJC= # do not build Objective C support #NO_OPENSSH= # do not build OpenSSH #NO_OPENSSL= # do not build OpenSSL (implies NO_KERBEROS/NO_OPENSSH) >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
