This is a heads up to let you know that you need to
rm -f /sbin/chwon /bin/chgrp
after your next `make world'. Additionally you need to install a new
/dev/MAKEDEV (mergmaster(8) will assist you in this).
A while back I moved the install location for chown and chgrp from
/usr/sbin and /usr/bin to /sbin and /bin. This was because of
MAKEDEV(8)'s dependence on them, and thus forced /usr to be mounted for
correct operation of MAKEDEV(8). Of course that is bad since you could
easily be trying to create the device node to even mount /usr.
This week, I have added chown-like functionality to mknod(8) and restored
chown & chgrp back to their previous locations. MAKEDEV has been
updated to use the new functionality of mknod(8).
However, do to this moving around of chown & chgrp's install location,
you may easily have stale versions in /sbin and /bin.
