System: NetBSD shark1.cambridge.arm.com 1.6M NetBSD 1.6M (GENERIC) #0: Thu Jan 23 11:55:34 GMT 2003 rearnsha@pc960.cambridge.arm.com:/work/rearnsha/netbsd/build/src/shark/sys/arch/shark/compile/GENERIC shark

>Description:
	
	Following the install notes for how to run postinstall from the
	install sets says:

           mkdir /tmp/upgrade
           cd /tmp/upgrade
           pax -zrpe -f /path/to/etc.tgz
           ./etc/postinstall -s `pwd` check
           ./etc/postinstall -s `pwd` fix

	However doing this we get an error when postinstall tries the obsolete
	check:

	obsolete check:
	postinstall: Can't find program "/mnt/distrib/sets/makeobsolete"

>How-To-Repeat:
	Run the postinstall script after following the install note commands

	
>Fix:
	Probably should add the makeobsolete file to the share package
	and then do as we do for postfix (check somewhere in addition to
	the default location).
