Not quiet. make -i means "ignore error return from command" but -k means this with the restriction that nothing that depends on those things returning an error should be built. No fetch should imply no build, but doesn't. : >I've also seen weird things where sometimes it would fetch things : >twice, mysteriously hang when failing back to ftp.freebsd.org (but : >only sometimes, and sometimes after < 64k was trasnferred) and a few : >other sh related oddities. : : If the network connection breaks during fetch, the next site on the list is : tried. I have sometimes seen fetch fail on the last byte of the file. This is more of a hang with OpenBSD's ftp. For some reason, it hangs after about 64k when talking to freefall for reasons unknown.
