Re: mergemaster barf



Oh, sorry, my mistake -- I had done 'make installworld' first, I just neglected to include it in the email.

Since that email, I tried doing another cvsup -- it added a few files, but not master.passwd. Then another mergemaster -- same error.

Thanks Doug and Andrei!

I've checked, the directory is there (/var/tmp/temproot/etc) however the
file (master.passwd) is not.

Any suggestions anyone? Thanks!

You're going to have to do installworld before running mergemaster to
pick up the new version of cap_mkdb. This will be fine as long as you
don't reboot before mergemaster is done.

hth,

Doug
