The symlinks to them from /sys/ufs/ffs are retained, which then causes make world to fail, since there are no sources for softupdates in /sys/ufs/ffs, but merely dead symlinks. >How-To-Repeat: Ran cvsup on another, similar machine an hour later; same result. >Fix: I deleted the symlinks and copied the files from another system into /sys/ufs/ffs; make world then runs, and result appears to be OK. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: From: alex@big.endian.de (Alexander Langer) To: hannes@pop.nwnexus.com Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: misc/19568: Running cvsup 3.4->3.5 deletes softupdate sources Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2000 00:07:05 +0200 Thus spake hannes@pop.nwnexus.com (hannes@pop.nwnexus.com): > Running cvsup this morning (27 June 2000) on a 3.4 system > (last cvs update about two weeks ago) deletes the softupdate Are you sure, you cvsup'ed RELENG_3?
