It took all of five minutes while I was working on something else for someone else. It's all about the tools. ;) Secondly, I haven't seen any MIT kerberos build failures in weeks. I recall one failure related to database export in from HDB format to MIT KDB format in our old Heimdal code. IIRC the committer fix that. (BTW, we should start thinking about decoupling and removing Heimdal from base for 16. This summer maybe?) The DSO error is related to an unclean incremental build which I cannot reproduce here. It appears the bug affects all DSO updates, so not attributable to MIT. This is not the first time but lately your hostility toward me has been palpable. I don't know what it is or the cause. > > DES > --=20 > Dag-Erling Sm=C3=B8rgrav - [email protected] -- Cheers, Cy Schubert <[email protected]> FreeBSD UNIX: <[email protected]> Web: https://FreeBSD.org NTP: <[email protected]> Web: https://nwtime.org e**(i*pi)+1=0
