Re: Building PCC for "tools" is broken (missing symbol __USE)- PCC bug or NetBSD source tree error?

["William D. Jones" <thor0505%comcast.net@localhost>]

Sorry for the delay in getting back. Iain sent me an email suggesting a 
checkout like you suggested, or using prepare_import.sh in 
$NETBSD_ROOT/external/bsd/pcc/. Is prepare_import.sh up to date? Should I 
use that script instead, or are there subtle issues to using that script 
right now as opposed to applying the diff directly (I've read that PCC's 
files are kept in multiple parts of the source tree)? It seems as if 
"prepare_import.sh" implements the equivalent of git subtree (track 
repository from within repositoty).

Additionally, the bottom of prepare_import.sh is confusing me:
echo ""
echo "after testing, use the following command to import from the dist 
directory,"
echo ""
echo "    cvs import src/external/bsd/pcc/dist ragge pcc-${datestamp}"
echo ""
echo "providing a ChangeLog in the commit message."

Is that supposed to be your job, Anders, since my username is not ragge, and 
I don't have write access :P.

The commit messages are saved at marc.info, see
http://marc.info/?l=pcc-commit-list&m=140628065609751&w=2

To get a diff you can use cvs -d
:pserver:anonymous%pcc.ludd.ltu.se@localhost:/cvsroot rdiff -u -r1.376 -r1.377
pcc/cc/ccom/cgram.y

Should be directly applyable.
