^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

20020320:

<bsd.lib.mk> needs a new install(1) for it's "-a cmd" support.

build and install at usr.bin/xinstall before the build.

20020319:

raw IPv6 socket now makes strict checking for sa_family and sa_len

on send(2) operation. be sure to have sbin/rtsol and usr.sbin/rtsold

newer than November 2001 when you upgrade the kernel.

20020311:

ssh configuration files were moved from /etc to /etc/ssh. Beware

if you restart your machine from remote. Note that sshd.conf needs

to be changed (due to the use of "/etc" inside).

20020223:

Users of the VAX port will need to rebuild and install gas

so it deal with the now present register prefix used in all

the VAX assembly files.

20020118:

ntpd user/group has been added. Need to hand add this in or builds

will break as mtree aborts early.

Add the following into /etc/group:

ntpd:*:15:

and the following to /etc/master.passwd (via vipw):

ntpd:*:15:15::0:0:Ntpd pseudo-user:/var/chroot/ntpd:/sbin/nologin

20011207:

If you're attempting to build a snapshot on sparc64 and are getting

reloc errors from the toolchain groff binary this means your native

toolchain has some broken C++ bits.

To fix:

Build a new toolchain (i.e. build.sh -t)

Use the new toolchain to build and install natively (i.e. /usr/lib)

gnu/lib/libgcc

gnu/lib/libstdc++

After this a snapshot will be able to be built.

20011201:

In order for a sparc64 build to work you must have a working awk. If

you've built and installed a system with the new toolchain up to this

point you do not have a working awk as its ability to do floating

point is broken.

To build:

remake and install gnu/lib/libgcc

remake and install gnu/usr.bin/gawk into /usr/bin (make sure it links

against the new libgcc.a)

20011128:

Kernel config information was changed to use defflag in

the various "files" files. Bug fixes to config(8) are

required in order for this to work properly. Make sure

to build and install in usr.sbin/config before attempting

to build a new kernel.

20011030:

libc/locale/wcstod.c now needs new lint(1). Update lint(1)

before building libc.

20011029:

The new document BUILDING.mdoc (view with nroff | more, or

see pre-generated .txt and .html versions) describes the build

procedure in great detail. BUILDING, and the USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN

build process, are intended in the long run to replace this

manual update log.

Users building a USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN system should read the

BUILDING document for caveats. Generally, BUILDING supersedes

UPDATING for these systems, as tool updating is taken care of

by the new build system.

20011028:

src/etc/Makefile now needs install to be able to handle

symlinks that point to nowhere. A bug in install that

prevented this was corrected.

Solution: update and reinstall usr.bin/xinstall

Better Solution: Use the new toolchain and it will just work

for you.

20011006:

/etc/mtree/NetBSD.dist has been updated to take advantage of

absolute path support added to mtree(8). Older mtree(8)s don't

Solution: update and reinstall usr.sbin/mtree

20011004:

Crunchgen has been updated to work via reach-over makefiles. Updating

is suggested before running a snapshot build

20010922:

The new toolchain is enabled on i386. This new build method

is intended to make all the upgrade issues elsewhere in UPDATING

obsolete (stay tuned...).

i386 platform builds must now set TOOLDIR in mk.conf or the

environment in order to build the system. This is a pathname

where host build tools will be installed, and must NOT be

the same as src/tools.

(Optionally, USETOOLS=no can be set in the environment if you

wish to avoid using the separate host toolchain for building a

subtree. Otherwise, this will default to "yes" automatically.)

20010915:

The new "ubcperf" code committed by Chuck Silvers removed

a header file, uvm/uvm_vnode.h. There may be stale .depend

20010803:

(i386 only): i386 kernel now uses new instructions like

`fxsave' which old gas doesn't understand. To build the

kernel successfuly, you need to build and install new gas

kernel successfully, you need to build and install new gas

(gnu/usr.bin/gas.new), or (temporarily) comment out

"options I686_CPU" from your kernel configuration until you

rebuilt your userland (and got a new gas).

make MKINFO=no dependall install

20010718:

Enabled correct .init/.fini processing in crt0. The way this

was done was to change a -I directive to cc(1), which means

make(1) will have a stale dependency (it will be checking the

before starting your build.

20010628:

A construct was added to uvm_page.h that uncovered a bug

in lint(1). If you get a warning/error about a non-portable

bitfield, update your lint(1) before proceeding.

20010226:

Added named user/group to system. Need to hand add this in or builds

will break as mtree aborts early.

Line 105 Recent changes:

Line 179 Recent changes:

Now a make build should progress.

20010219:

get/setprogname() added. Any hostprog's that may use this will need

get/setprogname() added. Any hostprogs that may use this will need

to be bootstrapped manually until the host system is current.

Known problems: sys/arch/macppc/stand/fixcoff

Line 147 Recent changes:

Line 221 Recent changes:

built into libcrypto. By using MKCRYPTO_{RC5,IDEA}, you can build

additional library libcrypto_{idea,rc5}.

20000623:

MKCRYPTO and friends added to share/mk/bsd.own.mk.

'cd share/mk ; make install' needed before make build.

Hints for a more successful build:
