Hello!

Anton is right, really the handbook says that it MAY contain, so it's not
necessary that after every build there will be some files with the immutable
flag.

OFF: Long long time ago one night when I was playing with jails (to be exact
I was building and making work my first jail by hand) I got to know this
little thing known as immutable, after building a jail, and after #&@$ing it
up (sry :)) I could not delete it. It was a funny discovery I remember I was
new to FBSD and unix in general:).
ON:

I think maybe in older releases the build process may have used the
immutable flag at build??, but the test machine I tried, started out as
maybe 5.2, and I never had this issue once. Now I'm at 8.1-REL. After you
make installworld you get some files immutable, check this:

# cd /usr/src/
# make installworld DESTDIR=/usr/home/testworld/
# cd /usr/home/testworld
# find . -xdev -flags +schg -exec ls -la {} \;

Anton if you wanna be sure just do it, or test it with the version you are
using, but I don't think you will find any immutable files in /usr/obj

/usr/obj]# find . -flags +schg -exec ls -la {} \;
/usr/obj]#


Sorry if this was a bit long, but I hope it helpded!

Regards,

Balazs.
