I got a bunch of security advisories in my e-mail today, so
I figured
I'd run a full upgrade on both of my NetBSD boxes. On the
./build.sh
distribution command, the upgrade on my server failed. This
same exact
problem happened when I tried to do a source upgrade from
2.1 to 3.0,
and I did a binary upgrade with sysinst to fix it.
The error occurred here:
nbmake: don't know how to make
/usr/src/lib/libc/net/res_mkquery.c. Stop
My system spit out a bunch of errors like this, and I get
this error
when I try to run any command as well.
/lib/libc.so.12: Undefined symbol "SYS_statfs"
(symnum = 450)
I found reference to libc and statfs in /usr/src/UPDATING,
but from
April of 2004, almost two years ago! Here is the text from
UPDATING:
20040418:
statfs(2) and friends have been replaced with statvfs(2).
Before
installing a newly build userland make sure that you are
running
a newly built kernel with COMPAT_20 set. In addition your
libc
build might not work (undefined SYS_statfs symbol) because
make
clean does not know how to remove files it does not know
about
anymore. Manually remove all generated .S sources and
objects
from the libc build directory.
This sounds just like what is affecting me, and I guess I'm
just curious
why? I was running 3.0 and upgraded my source tree with -r
netbsd-3.
Seems odd, eh?
Another thing to mention is that this didn't happen on my
workstation
when I upgraded from 2.1 to 3.0 like it did to my server.
I'm a bit
frightened to try the upgrade though, because my workstation
is more
important than my server  .
Any hints would be greatly appreciated.
