Re: Cannot rebuild Sendmail (with sasl2) **FIXED**

I would like to send a heartfelt 'THANK YOU' to everyone who contributed info to this thread. I had to use bits a pieces of everyone's input to make it finally do what I wanted it to do.. which it finally does!

in the end.. what my ultimate problem was.. was the /usr/obj directory. I must not have cleaned it out entirely.

so what i did was:
# chflags -R noschg /usr/obj/usr
# rm -rf /usr/obj/usr
# cd /usr/src
# make cleandir
# make cleandir
# cd /usr/src/lib/libsmutil
# make cleandir
# make cleandir && make obj && make
# cd /usr/src/lib/libsm
# make cleandir
# make cleandir && make obj && make
# cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail
# make cleandir
# make cleandir && make obj && make && make install

with this in my make.conf:
PERL_VER=5.8.8
PERL_VERSION=5.8.8

SENDMAIL_CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include/sasl -DSASL
SENDMAIL_LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib
SENDMAIL_LDADD=-lsasl2


I did have to modify what I had in my make.conf because it had -DSASL=2 instead of just -DSASL
so I hope this helps another FBSD lowbie.

I am gaining lots of respect for this Good Software. I will probably be putting FBSD in where I have other linux installations as the hardware gets replaced.

THANK YOU AGAIN EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP!

That's because to 'reuse' the existing object code (compiled during the
last buildworld and stored in /usr/obj) you have to set in your shell's
environment the MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX variable.

If you run buildworld with csh as your shell, this would be:

csh# setenv MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX /usr/obj

If you are using /bin/sh use:

# export MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX=/usr/obj

Then you should try:

# cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail
# make cleandir && make cleandir
# make obj depend all

I don't know why your buildworld seems to have picked the wrong settings
from make.conf. Are you *sure* you run a clean build? This would
require:

1. Removing /usr/obj

2. Running "make cleandir cleandir" in /usr/src

3. Checking /etc/make.conf

4. Running "buildworld buildkernel"

5. Installing everything, following the instructions
from /usr/src/UPDATING
