Patching the system
Hi all (and excuse my English, please) I need to patch script (/usr/src/usr.bin/script - /usr/bin/script), but I don't know how to do it correctly. Here is the patch and the bug report: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=56166 I think script is the problem, I have some errors with portupgrade and script like this: ** Command failed [exit code 1]: /usr/bin/script -qa \ /tmp/portupgrade932.5 make I have search in the handbook, FAQ and onlamp.com/fbsd, but I haven't find anything useful, sorry if this question is explained in any of these places. Thanks for your help. Regards, Manu ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
auto-patching the system
I keep my src tree updated with cvsup, but I start to accumulate patches to kernel or programs that I'd like to include automatically each time I recompile the kernel (pretty often) or I do a make world (much less often). Those are usually patches that have been already put forward to the attention of the maintainers with a send-pr, but got forgotten or simply ignored possibly because considered not interesting. At the moment I simply manually copy the modified files into the source tree before recompiling, but, of course, next time I do a cvsup, the changes are gone, requiring me to repeat the process next time I compile (and likely forgetting some stuff). Is there already any pre-canned way to include those patches at compile time? (A parallel source tree, for instance.)

There are probably more than one way to keep local patches to the source, but the way I do it is: Use cvsup to get a local copy of the whole cvs repository (instead of just a checked out source tree). Then use cvs to check out the source tree from the local repository. Unlike cvsup, cvs knows how to handle local modifications. -- Insert your favourite quote here.
