20120216: |
|
Default for MKCATPAGES changed to NO. Update builds will fail |
|
unless DESTDIR is cleaned manually. If you built between 20120207 |
|
and 20120216, daily and weekly could have created an unreable |
|
/var/db/man.db index for apropos. Running makemandb -f or |
|
the next run of weekly will fix it. |
|
|
|
20111227: |
|
If you built between 20111225 and 20111227 you need to remove |
|
/usr/lib/libpam.so.4* and /usr/lib/security/*.so.4, since the |
|
bump has been reverted. |
|
|
|
20111125: |
|
The "rnd" pseudodevice has been added to sys/conf/std, which |
|
means it should no longer be explicitly listed in kernel |
|
configuration files. The line "pseudo-device rnd" should be |
|
removed from any custom kernel config files users may have. |
|
|
|
20111119: |
|
A problem with the datastructures used by the rndctl(8) |
|
utility (pointers in datastructures in an array, making 32->64 |
|
bit compatibility very painful) has been fixed in a |
|
non-backwards-compatible way. If you replace your kernel, |
|
replace your rndctl executable too. |
|
|
|
20111001: |
|
the prop_*_send_syscall() functions from proplib(3) have been |
|
changed and their new version is not backward compatible with the old |
|
one. So ensure that all consumers of these functions (currently: |
|
quota2 code and its tests) are updated together with the new lib. |
|
|
|
20110817: |
|
sparc has been changed to use GCC 4.5.3, so any objdir or |
|
DESTDIR for them should be deleted before updating. |
|
|
|
20110806: |
|
i386 and amd64 have been changed to use GCC 4.5.3, so any |
|
objdir or DESTDIR for them should be deleted before updating. |
|
|
|
20110805: |
|
The update to GCC 4.5.3 requires a non-trivial portion of |
|
the tree to be cleaned. Best to delete both objdir and |
|
DESTDIR before running this update. So far, only the |
|
sparc64, mips and powerpc platforms have changed. |
|
|
|
20110803: |
|
The layout of external/public-domain/xz has changed. To do an |
|
update build you will have to remove the contents of the OBJDIR |
|
for external/public-domain/xz/bin by hand as the xz entry there |
|
is now a directory. |
|
|
|
20110410: |
|
The configuration of src/tools/gcc has changed. To do an |
|
update build you have to clean both tools/binutils and |
|
tools/gcc by hand. |
|
|
|
20110328: |
|
Building the Xorg binary was moved into a subdirectory to fix |
|
ordering issues with "make all". It may be necessary to remove |
|
the OBJDIR for external/mit/xorg/server/xorg-server/hw/xfree86 |
|
if your update build fails, as the "Xorg" entry there is now a |
|
directory. |
|
|
|
20110121: |
|
Assembler files no longer use -traditional-cpp. This can break |
|
the build of individual parts of the tree. This is handled |
|
correctly by build.sh. Manual builds have to update /usr/share/mk |
|
and re-run config(1) for any kernel configurations as needed. |
|
|
|
20101217: |
|
The tcpdump(8) program was changed to drop privileges and chroot(2) |
|
by default. It may be necessary to manually update passwd(5) and |
|
group(5) in order to make the program work with existing setups. |
|
|
|
20101125: |
|
The latest changes to setenv(3) dissallow setting environment |
|
variables with names that contain '='. Revision 1.18 of env.c |
|
assumed that this was allowed. Installing a new libc with an |
|
old copy of /usr/bin/env causes env x=1 printenv | grep x= to |
|
break which affects the autoconf tests for dependency finding, |
|
so building gcc will end up printing: |
|
checking dependency style of gcc... none |
|
configure: error: no usable dependency style found |
|
Fix it by rebuilding and re-installing env. |
|
|
|
20101119: |
|
Recent Xorg updates in xsrc/external/mit/ may cause various build |
|
or run-time problems. Delete your entire DESTDIR and OBJDIR if you |
|
have any build problems with xsrc, or problems with mismatched |
|
versions between xorg-server and drivers. |
|
|
|
20100604: |
|
The update of ATF to 0.9 causes old tests written in shell to fail |
|
unless they are rebuilt. If you are building with MKUPDATE=yes, |
|
you need to clean the src/external/bsd/atf/tests/ and the src/tests/ |
|
trees by hand. |
|
|
|
20100522: |
|
Recent Xorg updates in xsrc/external/mit/ will cause various build |
|
problems. Delete your entire DESTDIR and OBJDIR if you have any |
|
build problems with xsrc. |
|
|
|
20100522: |
|
private section of <ctype.h> was splitted, and now mklocale(1) |
|
include ctype_local.h, so you have to make cleandir in tools/mklocale. |
|
|
|
20100520: |
|
The location of the xkb compiled descriptions has changed. Please |
|
remove usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/compiled from your $DESTDIR. |
|
|
|
20100222: |
|
The shared objects file extension has been changed from .so to |
|
.pico, in order to avoid conflicts with shared libraries names |
|
libXX.so. All now stale regular .so files can be removed from |
|
your object directories. |
|
|
|
20100204: |
|
The termcap database has been removed from the sources, |
|
but has not been marked obsolete so it is not removed |
|
from the system when upgrading. |
|
As such, you will need to remove them from your object |
|
and destination directories. |
|
|
|
20091101: |
|
After updating, it may be necessary to make the 'cleandir' |
|
target in src/tools/yacc/ and in src/usr.bin/yacc/ before a |
|
'build.sh -u tools' or 'build.sh -u distribution'. Ditto |
|
src/tools/lex/ and src/usr.bin/lex/. |
|
|
|
20091001: |
|
On amd64 you must rebuild tools (to get the new binutils) |
|
before building a kernel, or the build fails on cpufunc.S. |
|
|
|
20091001: |
|
An error will create a ./usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/compiled/xkb |
|
symlink, failing the build. Delete the link, and the subdir |
|
it is in, and retry your build. |
|
|
|
20090718: |
|
libc build changed so that strchr() provides the extra entry |
|
point for index(). Update build of libc.a (and libc_pic.a) |
|
may fail because the archive contains the unwanted index.o. |
|
(Similarly for strrchr() and rindex().) |

|
A regression in binary compatibility for pthread_mutex_t has |
|
been fixed. Unfortunately, the price is breaking compatibility |
|
for -current. |
|
|
|
Threaded programs (using libpthread) and C++ programs (using |
|
libstdc++) compiled after 20070907 and before 20080802 need to |
|
be recompiled. |
|
|

|
$ grep REQUIRES=/usr/lib/libpthread /var/db/pkg/*/+BUILD_INFO |

$ grep REQUIRES=/usr/lib/libstdc++ /var/db/pkg/*/+BUILD_INFO |
