yep, didn't know if it was build depends or just the rpm build.

I'm putting together a build script, sometimes it's easier to
purge and restart, there wasn't but a couple packages installed
anyway.

success! Thanks.

My second post was based solely on Piotr's hint regarding
NATIVE_PTHREADS.

I deleted my mk.conf, used LDFLAGS+=${PTHREAD_LDFLAGS} from HEAD
and it occurred to me clean-depends does not call clean. So however
one gets there, that seems the fix.  (can we get a pullup to Q2?)

Is there a useful reason clean-depends does not call the clean
target?
