But I have nothing under /usr/src. I have installed minimum of FreeBSD.
But you originally said you cvsup'ed to get 5.4 which means you should
have downloaded the source tree for the entire release as well as the
ports. Unless you meant to say that you ONLY cvsup'd the ports tree.
Can you show us the contents of your cvsupfile? (or at least the
commandline args you used to cvsup if you're not reading from a config
file for this purpose)
For reference, I use a single "global" config file to get the source
tree (userland + kernel) and ports tree (plus docs) in one pass.
This is what my /etc/cvsupfile contains:
*default host=cvsup11.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs
*default tag=RELENG_5_4
*default delete use-rel-suffix
src-all
*default tag=.
doc-all
ports-all
Then, I just type this at the shell (I use bash) before putting it into
a cronjob once I know it works:
cvsup -g -L 2 /etc/cvsupfile && portsdb -uF
As an alternative to my earlier suggestion regarding sendmail, I believe
you could also disable the base sendmail and use the ports sendmail
instead but that seems like more work to me. I don't offhand know what
you'd additionally have to supply in /etc/make.conf and/or the make args
for the ports build in order to do this properly. If you're set on doing
it this way, maybe check the archives and/or post a new question
specific to this (ie. "replacing base sendmail with sendmail from ports")
Otherwise, just check that you've got the right syntax for cvsup and get
the source for the release you want. You'll likely need/want it later
for doing updates anyway.
