I confirm the bug and the workaround is correct, is noone going to fix this? Although when doing the 2nd symlink there is no need to do the first, so just the 2nd symlink needed for workaround. |
# cd /usr/src/9 # mergemaster -p *** Creating the temporary root environment in /var/tmp/temproot *** /var/tmp/temproot ready for use *** Creating and populating directory structure in /var/tmp/temproot cp: /usr/src/etc/master.passwd: No such file or directory *** FATAL ERROR: Cannot copy files to the temproot environment WORKAROUND FOR THIS: #cd /usr/src #ln -s /usr/src/9/etc /usr/src/etc After that I have next FATAL: # mergemaster *** Creating the temporary root environment in /var/tmp/temproot *** /var/tmp/temproot ready for use *** Creating and populating directory structure in /var/tmp/temproot make: don't know how to make distrib-dirs. Stop *** FATAL ERROR: Cannot 'cd' to /usr/src and install files to the temproot environment WORKAROUND FOR THIS: #cd /usr #mv /usr/src/ /usr/srca #ln -s /usr/srca/9 /usr/src #ln -s /usr/srca/9 usr/src/9 Please FIX that and allow to build/install world while sources are not in /usr/src EXPECTED problem is here: /usr/src/usr.sbin/mergemaster/mergemaster.sh:638 # Assign the source directory # SOURCEDIR=${SOURCEDIR:-/usr/src} <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< if [ ! -f ${SOURCEDIR}/Makefile.inc1 -a \ -f ${SOURCEDIR}/../Makefile.inc1 ]; then echo " *** The source directory you specified (${SOURCEDIR})" However doing: -SOURCEDIR=${SOURCEDIR:-/usr/src} +SOURCEDIR=${SOURCEDIR:-/usr/src/9} while I were in /usr/src/9 do not fix the problem. So I did symlinks.
