System: NetBSD azenomei.falu.nl 1.4.1 NetBSD 1.4.1 (AZENOMEI) #27: Wed Jun 14 01:41:57 CEST 2000 rhialto@azenomei.falu.nl:/usr/src/sys/arch/alpha/compile/AZENOMEI alpha


>Description:
	I am building -current sources on a 1.4.1 system. I take care
	to invoke make as $DESTDIR/usr/bin/make -m $BSDSRCDIR/share/mk 
	to get an up-to-date make.

	Most recursive invocations of make respect this. 

	There are exceptions in the Makefile in the following directories:

	src/gnu/usr.sbin/sendmail/makemap
	src/gnu/usr.sbin/sendmail/praliases
	src/gnu/usr.sbin/sendmail/sendmail
	src/gnu/usr.sbin/sendmail/smrsh
	src/lib/libasn1
	src/lib/libasn1/asn1_compile
	src/lib/libcom_err/compile_et
	src/lib/libgssapi
	src/lib/libhdb
	src/lib/libkadm
	src/lib/libkadm5
	src/lib/libkadm5clnt
	src/lib/libkadm5srv
	src/lib/libkrb5

	In each of these there are one or more invocations of either plain
	"make" or "${MAKE}" which all should be "${MAKE} ${MAKEFLAGS}".

	Additionally, the invocation of makewhatis at the end of make
	build explicitly resets DESTDIR (from
	$DESTDIR/usr/libexec/makewhatis):

	make -f - DESTDIR="" install <<_Install_Whatis_Db_
	...
	_Install_Whatis_Db_

	It is not entirely clear why this is clearing DESTDIR, but in
	any case the wrong make is invoked (and I suspect the whatis.db
	is installed in the wrong place but I did not check that).

>How-To-Repeat:
	Build some -current which requires a newer make than /usr/bin/make,
	using DESTDIR.
	
>Fix:
	edit all above files,
	or (inelegant workaround only) install make in /usr/bin and
	bsd.*.mk in /usr/share/mk.

-Olaf.
