Subj: 	Error trying to use ./usr/lib/Makefile
I have two issues: 	

I am trying to test a modification to the ./usr/lib/Makefile which uses the
NEW_FILES directive.  Unfortunately, when I attempt a build to my output
directory, I receive the error that /usr/lib/nls/msg/en_US.ISO8859-1/Mail.cat
doesn't exist.  I have attempted this more than once and I get the same error.
I have done a build all of ./usr/include, ./usr/css/lib/libc, and ./usr/shlib
to create a minimally populated environment.
Any information on the missing file or how to resolve this problem would be
helpful.

I am also having a problem testing ./sbin/Makefile.  The Makefile creates a
great deal of files.  Unfortunately, the minimally populated environment
described above takes up a lot of disk space.  I don't have enough disk space
to create the sbin files.  Are there any files I can get rid of from the
environment that sould not effect the creation of the sbin files?


Thanks in advance,
Karen Richards

Mail.cat is generated from ./usr/bin/Mail/Makefile.

The only way I can think of to save space would be to do a mklinks in the
obj part of your sandbox to the libc and shlib areas; but I believe that is
not possible in unx since you don't bring down the obj areas.  I believe that
./sbin/Makefile will not need anything in ./usr/shlib, since it builds
static images.  So after you have tested ./usr/lib/Makefile, you can blow
away [or compress temporarily] ./usr/shlib/* in the obj area and then
do your ./sbin/Makefile work.
