Hi, A few days ago, I extracted the src.tar.gz from the 4.8 CDROM and synchronized the src tree to -stable through CVS. I expected to see about 5 files being changed, but to my surprise a lot (all?) files in src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/ were also updated. This seems weird, because as far as I know, no commits were done to CVS in the perl directory with a OPENBSD_4_8 tag and certainly not so many.
I looked at a few files for the differences and until know I've seen only changes in the comments, for example: (src0/ is a clean copy from src.tar.gz from the CDROM, src/ is synced through CVS to OPENBSD_4_8) $ diff -u src0/gnu/usr.bin/perl/x2p/Makefile.SH src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/x2p/Makefile.SH --- src0/gnu/usr.bin/perl/x2p/Makefile.SH Sat Oct 24 19:01:02 2009 +++ src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/x2p/Makefile.SH Thu Oct 28 20:42:22 2010 @@ -27,12 +27,9 @@ echo "Extracting x2p/Makefile (with variable substitutions)" rm -f Makefile cat >Makefile <<!GROK!THIS! -# $RCSfile: Makefile.SH,v $$Revision: 1.12 $$Date: 2009/10/12 18:30:28 $ +# $RCSfile: Makefile.SH,v $$Revision: 4.1 $$Date: 92/08/07 18:29:07 $ # -# $Log: Makefile.SH,v $ -# Revision 1.12 2009/10/12 18:30:28 millert -# Merge in perl 5.10.1; part two -# +# $Log: Makefile.SH,v $ CC = $cc BYACC = $byacc Does anybody know what has happened? I assume that my src tree (after syncing with CVS and therefore with all the 'new' files in gnu/usr.bin/perl) is still suitable for building 4.8-stable. Is this assumption correct? Thanks, Maurice
