NetBSD mang 1.5Y NetBSD 1.5Y (FEW010912) #2: Thu Oct 11 13:41:50 CEST 2001 root@few-010912:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/FEW010912 i386
Architecture: i386
Target Machine: sparc
>Description:
When creating the directory hierarchy in $DESTDIR using mtree
it fails because of missing entries in the host's password
and/or group file.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run `sh build.sh -m sparc -D /usr/BUILD/DESTDIR.sparc'
[...]
/usr/src/tools/obj.sparc/tools.NetBSD-1.5Y-i386/bin/mtree -def mtree/NetBSD.dist -p /usr/BUILD/DESTDIR.sparc/ -U
mtree: unknown user `named'
mtree: failed at line 664 of the specification
*** Error code 1
>Fix:
Have mtree use `src/etc/{passwd,group}' to lookup owner
ids for the $DESTDIR tree.
Note that setting UNPRIVILEGED allows the build to complete
but obviously that will not get you true installation sets.
