I just tried again with sources that I cvs updated a four hours
ago. It was rather interesting... I first cd'ed to
/mnt/NetBSD-current/src which is the directory where I have my cvs
stuff. Then I did:
./build.sh -R /mnt/NetBSD-current/releasedir -D /mnt/NetBSD-current/destdir tools sourcesets release
The result of that was:
----------------------
install ===> zic
mkdir -p /mnt/NetBSD-current/src/obj/tooldir.NetBSD-1.6_RC1-i386/bin
/mnt/NetBSD-current/src/obj/tooldir.NetBSD-1.6_RC1-i386/bin/nbinstall -c -p -r -
m 555 zic /mnt/NetBSD-current/src/obj/tooldir.NetBSD-1.6_RC1-i386/bin/nbzic
install ===> groff
===> Tools built to /mnt/NetBSD-current/src/obj/tooldir.NetBSD-1.6_RC1-i386
nbmake: don't know how to make sourcesets. Stop
nbmake: stopped in /mnt/NetBSD-current/src/tools
ERROR: Failed to make sourcesets
*** BUILD ABORTED ***
------------------------
It looks like the build system was left in the wrong directory after it
finished building tools.
I then issued the following command:
./build.sh -R /mnt/NetBSD-current/releasedir -D /mnt/NetBSD-current/destdir -u -U sourcesets release
It successfully built the sourcesets (with the checksums) and at this
moment is still working on release.
} (Time to add another sanity check to build.sh)
Perhaps. Certainly, it should figure out dependencies by itself.
