Buildworld without_gssapi=1...

[JamesElstone]

Hi All,

I have a question whereby I seek enlightenment...

I am trying to perform a [cmd=]make buildworld[/cmd] using a source tree downed by csup using RELENG_9_0, and am having grief.

The issue I have is that I am getting a stop

don't know how to make lib/libgssapi__L

and noticed in my /etc/make.conf I had a line stating

without_gssapi=1

I'm making buildworld again with the

without_gssapi=1

line commented out, and am guessing that is my problem.

What effect does

without_gssapi=1

have?

James.

Since it's lower case and in the wrong file it won't do anything. WITHOUT_GSSAPI however is explained in src.conf(5).

     WITHOUT_GSSAPI
             Set to not build libgssapi.

And, I'm expecting the inevitable "What is GSS API?": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generic_Security_Services_Application_Program_Interface

Many thanks.

By commenting out the

WITHOUT_GSSAPI=1

in /etc/make.conf I was able to build my world again! It was indeed in CAPS, but was transfering the detail by hand, hence the human factor...

Is /etc/src.conf a replacement for /etc/make.conf or are the two read and merged, or does one take presendence over the other?

The src.conf(5) is used only when building world or kernel, make.conf(5) is used every time you invoke make(1).

Hello again,

I have a question, that follows on from this thread: I don't have an /etc/src.conf file!

The heritage of my machine was installed with 9.0-RC2 and have only recently updated the kernel to 9.0-RELEASE-p4 via svn and am working my way through the ports via portupdate. (Woe is me on this machine...)

I have double checked in mergermaster, but no src.conf file...

Would I be correct in thinking that this is created by a human only if there was a need to specify kernel only options?

Correct.
