Re: Building in /usr/src copied to $HOME

Hi,
I am trying to use /usr/src copied to my $HOME but the build process
doesn't want to work. For example when I try build /bin/cp I get the
following:

shell::wilx:~/freebsd/src/bin/cp> make
"/usr/home/users/wilx/freebsd/src/bin/cp/../Makefile.inc", line 9:
Malformed conditional (${MK_DYNAMICROOT} == "no")
"/usr/share/mk/bsd.init.mk", line 15: if-less endif
make: fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue

Is there any sort of tutorial/prescription anywhere how to use /usr/src
tree that does not reside in /usr/src?

Hmmm, that should work. I regularly build as a non-root user, at
`/home/build/src'.

The error about ``Malformed conditional'' seems a bit odd too. Are you
using /usr/bin/make? What version of FreeBSD is the build host running,
and what version of the source tree have you checked out?
