Bruce A. Mah 4e372c6746 Whitespace-only commit that can be ignored by translators.
The 1.2->1.4 deltas caused the indentation of this document to become
massively...well...confused.  Try to fix this.

Alexander Langer d33a962d07 Move /etc/defaults/make.conf to /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf as
discussed on the arch@ mailinglist (after repo-copy).

sys.mk will .error if it finds /etc/defaults/make.conf but include
it anyways (this is the same behaviour as with the make.conf.local
removal).

/usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf has BDEFLAGS commented out now,
since it's only an example file.

Adjust all textes that talk about make.conf or defaults/make.conf to
match the new situation.

There might be some other bug related to OBJDIR handling, once
fixed these changes can be MFC immediately.

John Baldwin 21ed03d815 Axe all the plists and supporting scripts to manage them and use them to
roll dists.
2001-08-30 18:11:42 +00:00
John Baldwin 5356254edb Overhaul this script a bit:
- build_x.sh now does all the steps to build an X dist rather than being
  a child script of package_x_dists.sh
- Update the usage information to list the ports you need to install
  before running this script as well as needing to set CVSROOT.
- Make sure CVSROOT is set.  If not, exit with an error.
- We now take two parameters: a work directory and an output directory.
  The work directory is used as scratch space.  All of the bindist will
  end up in the output directory.
- Only apply XF86.patch to the checked out XFree86 port if it exists.
- Use XFree86's build-bindist tool to package up the dists using their
  distfiles rather than using our own packing lists that have to be
  manually updated each time the port changes.

Example usage:
	env CVSROOT=/home/ncvs ./build_x.sh /usr/xtmp /usr/x11dists
2001-08-30 18:10:26 +00:00
John Baldwin 999accad69 The current XFree86 port needs some help in the BUILD_XDIST case. Commit
this patch here until I can get the port fixed.

Dima Dorfman 1845f09c55 New release note: config(8) ENV. I put this under the "kernel
changes" section, but I'm not sure it's appropriate there.  config(8)
is a userland utility, but this is actually a "kernel" feature.  There
are release notes about config(8) in both sections, but "kernel" seems
more appropriate for this one.

Bruce A. Mah d0b8716702 Try to make some sense out of the mess that used to be INSTALL.TXT.
1.  Bring floppies.sgml section in-line into install.sgml, where it
makes more sense.

2.  Slightly reorganize some sections of Installation section and
do some wordsmithing.

3.  Update distribution layout to reflect RELNOTESng and new compat
distributions.

4.  Update upgrade file list from 4-STABLE.

5.  It's been a long time since 2.2.X; get rid of instructions dealing
with "new" handling of compatability slices and fix up other references
in the text.

6.  Hunt down and kill emoticons with extreme prejudice.  Try to
tone down the use of exclamation points.

7.  Cross-reference new and improved Installation chapter in
Handbook.

8.  Add a proper abstract for this document.

Bruce A. Mah a82d1944d1 Troll for MFCs that haven't been marked as such: KERNCONF, an(4)
support for Aironet 350, ed(4) support for Linksys cards, aac(4),
ssh(1) not SUID, passwd(1)/pw(8) support for passwd_format,
rc(8) deletes non-directories in /var/run and /var/spool/lock,
fmtcheck(3), sshd(8) X11Forwarding, sshd_config MaxStartups
deprecates ConnectionsPerPeriod.

Some of these MFCs are new, others were reflected in 4-STABLE's
release notes already, and still others were MFC-ed before prior
releases.

Relocate dgm->digi release note item to live next to digi.

Relocate an(4)/AIR350 note to be next to another an(4) entry.

Remove a duplicate entry documenting xargs(1) -J.
