I've tested this is a freshly installed 9.1-RELEASE jail and I haven't been biten by the bug you describe. ctfconvert(1) seems to be installed by default in 9.1-RELEASE, this is probably there problem didn't occur. I can easily verify this in the jail: % root@test9:/usr/src # ls -l /usr/bin/ctfconvert /usr/bin/vi /usr/bin/tail % -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 371536 Dec 4 09:33 /usr/bin/ctfconvert % -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 19848 Apr 17 06:28 /usr/bin/tail % -r-xr-xr-x 6 root wheel 346432 Apr 17 06:28 /usr/bin/vi Do you have a theory about why you've got the problem while I haven't? FYI, it seems 9.0-RELEASE also has ctfconvert(1): http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/release/9.0.0/cddl/usr.bin/ctfconvert/ My guess is tha this might happen if you don't have /usr/bin/ctfconvert. I've just removed it and trying to build kernel again. Regards, -- Jeremie Le Hen Scientists say the world is made up of Protons, Neutrons and Electrons.
