NetBSD this 1.5H NetBSD 1.5H (THAT) #17: Tue Oct 31 11:05:19 GMT 2000     root@this:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/THAT i386

>Description:

in a sparc installation built via a cross-compilation environment,
/etc/pwd.db as installed in $DESTDIR has uids stored with local
endianness, instead of target endianness.  the db files are, i'm led
to believe, architecture independant, but the keys and data are not.

>How-To-Repeat:

build and install the cross pkg called cross-sparc-netbsdelf-1.3.0.0.
use it to build a sparc installation somewhere.  mount the sparc set
via nfs and notice that cu refuses to work.  look at the owner of
/dev/[dt]ty[a-d] (ls -l) and notice that it does say "uucp" for the
owner, but rather 1107296256.  think for a second and then feed that
number to bc (with obase=16) and see 42000000.

>Fix:

pwd_mkdb has an endianness flag, so it should use it.  note that my
fix is for src/etc/Makefile, but that this endianess thing could just
as easily be stuff in each of the src/etc/etc.<arch>/Makefile.inc
files.
