Hi,
I just tried to do a "make installworld" with DESTDIR set
to a directory on an NFS server. It broke like this:
===> lib/libcom_err/doc (install)
lockf -k /mnt/data/6.1-TEST/original-tree/usr/share/info/dir install-info --quiet
--defsection="Programming & development tools." --defentry="* libcom_err:
(com_err). A Common Error Description Library for UNIX." com_err.info
/mnt/data/6.1-TEST/original-tree/usr/share/info/dir
lockf: cannot open /mnt/data/6.1-TEST/original-tree/usr/share/info/dir:
Operation not supported
*** Error code 73
Stop in /usr/src/lib/libcom_err/doc.
*** Error code 1
Am I missing something? Is installworld over NFS supported
at all? I could swear I have done it before ...
Yes. From build(7):
: installworld Install everything built by a preceding buildworld step
: into the directory hierarchy pointed to by make(1) vari-
: able DESTDIR.
:
: If installing onto an NFS file system, make sure that
: rpc.lockd(8) is running on both client and server. See
: rc.conf(5) on how to make it start at boot time.
Well my problem was that the system I wanted to overwrite had a defect
CDrom, but was still running something like 4.x without rpc.lockd really
working. Why don't know ....
But since I was desperate to upgrade I stopped the installprocess to
replace lockf with a dud shellscript. That got me thru.
I'm sure it is needed for one reason or another, but would be nice it
one could overrule it.
