Building 1.6_BETA1 cvs updated May 24, 2002 for shark using build.sh
into a 1.5.3_RC1 DESTDIR
>Description:
postinstall only lists one thing wrong at a time for at least some of the
checks. It tells me that I need gid fix ntpd, I fix, I run it again, it tells
me I need gid fix sshd, I fix, I run it again, it tells me I need gid fix
named. The same thing happens with uid fix.
It also thinks I have:
Obsolete rc.conf(5) variable '$sshd_conf_dir' found.
when nowhere in the -d specified do I have $sshd_conf_dir in a file.
This is worrisome, as I don't know if this suffers from the same problem
as above, listing one problem at a time, so I don't know if there are
other ssh problems to fix, and it just hasn't told me about them yet.
>How-To-Repeat:
run postinstall against a tree upgraded from shark's 1.5.3_RC1 snapshot to
the 1.6_BETA1 source tree.
