A few weeks ago, I ran rcorder on a rc.d directory with various scripts that didn't have any of the special lines. It still listed the scripts (so I guess it attempted to order them). rcorder's man page says the files must contain the special lines, but I think it should check itself. Send-pr: misc/21251: rcorder and rc scripts without "special lines". (perry closed on 24/Apr/2003; he fixed the documentation.)

For some reason, I moved a directory and lost contents in it. I did this a few days ago and it also happened; that time it was on a NFS mount and I guessed that it was related or I forgot something.

Building new custom ISO image. Fetched new netbsd-1-6 (NetBSD 1.6.1 official today) source. I grabbed xsrc with:

cd /usr/src
cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot login
time cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot checkout -P   -rnetbsd-1-6-PATCH001 xsrc
(This took 112 minutes.) Now to build xsrc. Note that /usr/share/mk/bsd.own.mk defines USE_XF86_4=yes if i386.
time make DESTDIR=/backups/netbsd/destdir build
(This took 177 minutes; this is while building NetBSD which continues.)

The time returned from above:

real    176m52.521s
user    62m9.773s
sys     ,*(.0))m.).770s
The build from src (below) was:
real    331m22.294s
user    34621008m33.829s
sys     ,*(.0++m.,.551s
**Notice that the "sys" contains the formatting! I have seen and maybe reported this before.

To build src with:

time ./build.sh -d -D /backups/netbsd/destdir
took almost six hours.

Sudo sudo-1.6.7p4 is out. Send-pr: pkg/21256: new sudo version, old distfile gone. (Updated and closed a little later by Takahiro Kambe.)
