I run a script I wrote that does build.sh to a destdir, pax's up rescue,
libexec, lib, bin, sbin, and usr, and then install that via cd / && pax
-zrvpe -f /path/to/userland.tgz. that way i can just install from that .tgz
on other i386 machines here. I then run etcupdate. /var/db/obsolete was
initially created by /etc/postinstall at the end of an etcupdate a while
back, and this has been going on since then.
