Hi,
I'd like to upgrade my sendmail version in advance of
upgrading to the next release of the OS. I was wondering if I
cvsup the version of the OS I want, then do :
# cd /usr/src/lib/libsm
# make obj && make depend && make
# cd /usr/src/lib/libsmutil
# make obj && make depend && make
# cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail
# make obj && make depend && make && make install
if that would be enough? Later on, when I can
afford to reboot the machine, I'll go through the :
# 1. `cd /usr/src' (or to the directory containing your source tree).
# 2. `make buildworld'
# 3. `make buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE' (default is GENERIC).
# 4. `make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE' (default is GENERIC).
# 5. `reboot' (in single user mode: boot -s from the loader prompt).
# 6. `mergemaster -p'
# 7. `make installworld'
# 8. `mergemaster'
# 9. `reboot'
Procedure.
I don't want to build out of ports because it is set up not to
override the base install.
Thanks, Tuc
