I'm trying to follow the instructions on

    http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq5.html#Bld

I intended to bring it up to STABLE and work within that, but I have
been doing this in spare moments and forget to use "-rOPENBSD_5_5"
when doing the ceckout. And I thought, well, it looks from the
instructions here like I might be able to just go straight to CURRENT.
So I decided to forge ahead.

Building and installing the kernel and rebooting seems to have been
uneventful. Then I tried to build userland, according to the
instructions:

    rm -rf /usr/obj/*
    cd /usr/src
    make obj

Which seems to have gone okay. Then

    cd /usr/src/etc && env DESTDIR=/ make distrib-dirs

and I get the following output:

    if [ ! -d //. ]; then install -d -o root -g wheel -m 755 /; fi
    mtree -qdef mtree/4.4BSD.dist -p // -U

    mtree: unknown group _unbound
    mtree: failed at line 840 of the specification
    *** Error 1 in /usr/src/etc (Makefile:241 'distrib-dirs')

(I think I hand-copied everything correctly.)

I''m thinking maybe the jump from 5.5 to CURRENT was too much? Or
should I be looking at something else?

Be careful where you see conspiracy.
Look first in your own heart,
and ask yourself if you are not your own worst enemy.
