Hi

I made a fresh 2.7 openBSD install and I am willing to upgrade it to 2.8.

So I am reffering to the upgrading mini-FAQ I found online.
http://www.openbsd.org/faq/upgrade-minifaq.html

According to it, first thing I have to do is recompile ld.

 cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/ld
 make clean && make obj && make

Here is what the make tells me:
(last 3 lines)
cc -02 -I/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/ld/rtld/.. -I/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/ld/rtld/ -I/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/ld/rtld/../i386 -fpic -fno-function-cse -DRTLD -DLIBC_SCCS -c /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/ld/rtld/../i386/md.c
make: don't know how to make vfprintf.c. Stop
*** Error code 2

What is the problem? Is it possible that my Makefile wouldnt be uptodate?
I did a "cvs -q get -rOPENBSD_2_8 -P src", setting anoncvs variables correctly... I think that worked fine...

Anyway... that was question number 1
***
Here is number 2
I saw there is a premilinary step to rebuilding ld
It is "Clean the cruft"

  # cd /usr/src
  # cvs -q -d anoncvssome.anon.server:/cvs up -PAd
  # find . -type l -name obj | xargs rm
  # make -k cleandir
  # rm -rf /usr/obj/*
  # make obj

SO I did.
I get errors too cause I have no Makefile in /usr/ directory.
so the "make -k cleandir" and the "make obj" obviously are useless for me.
What did I miss?
What else than the "cvs get " do I need to do?

Maybe my 2 questions ar related...
Thanks for your help
And sorry if I am asking something obvious... I am not used to using CVS...
