I keep getting monster files ...
/usr/src/lib/libedit
4294967295 Jul 20 22:31 editline.o*
4294967295 Jul 20 22:32 history.o*
15671364 Jul 20 22:33 libedit.a
4294967295 Jul 20 22:31 tokenizer.o*
& make runs in that dir till libedit.a grows to eat the disc
same problem in libkvm/ too. & with
usr.bin
4294968661 Jul 20 23:13 options.h
Further to last mail:
Tip 4:
cd /usr/libexec ; ./cc1 -version
Reason 4:
I seem to recall Phil uses 2.5.8 , not 2.4.5 (as installed from src)
Tip 5:
cd /usr/src ; find . -type f -size 0 -print | xargs rm
Reason 5:
zero files seem to turn up irrespective of whether one sups or mirrors
Phil do you use an env var to inhibit shared libs ?
I noticed -static on /sbin, &
LDSTATIC in /usr/src/share/mk/bsd.prog.mk &
bsd.prog.mk in arch/pc532/Makefile & below
shlibs were a major pain during assimilation into FreeBSD,
(& I've heard similar battle stories from SUn & other architectures)
so I don't think we should yet use them by default for NetBSD-PC532,
until stability & distribution is achieved,
(though I recall Mathias <leo@marco.de> would welcome a tester
for shlibs work he's done))
PS My kernel's not healthy enough to do a
cd /usr/src ; make -i
without many boring crashes, so I wired the PCB power unit, (mains input side),
via a cheap timeclock, with a repeat factor of 15 mins off, 30 mins on,
& with the autoboot in place, & a
( cd /usr/src ; make -i ) &
at end of /etc/rc, I'm set to Force it to compile !
(Disc on another power supply, to save wearing out head & landing area)
