 N/m on the sysctl.conf I think that one exists now.

I think it'd be nice if it didn't.  Files that don't contain anything
just make for mergemaster annoyance.

Ciao,

make.conf and -CURRENT

2002-05-10 Thread Jeff Ito

Hello,

Is the lack of /etc/defaults/make.conf intentional? an oversite? or perhaps
something that I have messed up on my end?
I have run cvsup/mergemaster (18:30PM EST May 10. 2002), and that
changes nothing. /usr/src/etc/*/* does not contain said file, the only place
it does exist is in /usr/share/examples/etc.

Thanks
Jeff

It's intentional.  Since everything was commented out examples and not
actual defaults, it was moved to /usr/share/examples/etc.

They build OK and work fine.

make.conf on CURRENT question

1999-07-28 Thread Jeroen Ruigrok/Asmodai

Hi,

just a couple of questions:

compat22=yes in /etc/make.conf accomplishes a.out support which we need
for netscape support. Correct?

What does compat3x do however? Provide ELF compatibility libraries for
programs written for 3.x?

Also. Suppose I have an ELF CURRENT box that never ran a.out.
If I want a.out support from a make world I would need to uncomment
compat22=yes in /etc/make.conf, correct in assuming this?

Thanks for the time taken to answer this,

You will also need a.out libraries from XFree86 in order to get Netscape
working.

 programs written for 3.x?

Yes

 Also. Suppose I have an ELF CURRENT box that never ran a.out.
 If I want a.out support from a make world I would need to uncomment
 compat22=yes in /etc/make.conf, correct in assuming this?

You'll also want to use:

make world -DWANT_AOUT=YES

to have the a.out libraries built.
