The sources before this change expect lint to be present and actually use it I have worked around this by commenting out xlint from the build in the 11.1 sources, since I don't need it. Maybe simply defining LINT="" would work too. (I'll test this approach later) I have no need for xlint and have no objection to it's removal, but loosing the ability to build older source trees from head looks wrong. Don't know if modifying older branches to cope with the lint command not being present is a viable option. -- Guido Falsi <madpilot_at_FreeBSD.org>Received on Tue Dec 12 2017 - 10:04:58 UTC
