hi all,
slowly by slowly I'm approaching to openbsd.
I've made some humble progress in this last month and I've a couple of
questions concerning the building the system from sources.
I'm not sure that building the system from source is the primary target
when learning openbsd, however you seem to have succeeded, so...
(Hint; use snapshots)
1)
the $RELEASEDIR is filled with *.tgz after issued the make release but I have
these (ignored) errors at the end:

All of the files above does not exist on all architectures.
Search the fine archives, as mentioned in the fine FAQ (if you have not
already done so).

2)
after made the release I clean all the stuff around in the following way:
rm $RELEASEDIR
rm $DESTDIR
rm -rf /usr/obj/*
Seems ok to me, if you want to clean it all up.
cd /usr/src && make clean
If you ran "make obj", then this step should be unneccesary, since no
files are then place within the source tree (only obj symlinks, but I do
not think "make clean" removes those anyway).
