I'm upgrading a bunch of older machines *some as far back as 4.2).
First let me say a bing THANKS YOU for all the hard work the release
engineering team does to make this work as well as it does.
Now, let me point out a small problem. When I got to the "make
installworld" step, I was politely informed that I needed a snsmp user.
Looking at UPDATING, I saw that I could install the newer mergemaster by
hand, and use it to add this user. I did that. Unfortunately the
installworld, then errored when it got to installing mergemaster, as there
was then on mergemaster.sh file in the directory, and no rule to build it. I
copied the file back from the final location, back to mergemaster.sh in the
source tree, and I'm re-running make installworld, which should go OK now.
Would it be possible to fix the Makefile to prevent this problem?
