John Dyson mentioned that the kernel is undergoing a lot of changes,
well the stuff in userland is also changing quite a bit at the moment.
I did a make world on Thursday night/Friday morning. There are just
a few minor hitches to watch out for:
- locale support introduces some library changes, and libc is bumped
to version 1.1, so you need to do an ldconfig after inetalling
new libraries.
- there have been some bugs found in the locale stuff. Those were
fixed by yesterday though.
- A few makefiles were broken, those have been fixed.
For -current users getting up to date with locale, a good order
to do things is:
cd /usr/src
make cleandist
make mk
make includes
make libraries (**)
ldconfig /usr/lib /usr/local/lib /usr/X386/lib
make tools #(this is probably overkill)
make clean depend all
make install
(This assumes that you have previously done bootstrapld)
(**)
It may be safer to do:
cd lib/libc
make clean depend all
make install
ldconfig /usr/lib /usr/local/lib /usr/X386/lib
cd ../..
make libraries
If you start getting warnings about the symbol
__CurrentRuneLocale not being resolved, then you must run
ldconfig.
Geoff.
