Bill Paul b337d29402 Repeat after me kids: "I will not try to install files into a directory
when I'm not sure whether or not that directory exists."

Today I discovered that rebuilding /usr/include completely from scratch
doesn't work, because the libss Makefile tries to install headers into
/usr/include/ss, which 'make includes' does not create. The result is that
the libss Makefile plants the header files in /usr/include as individual
files called 'ss,' with the second one overwriting the first, and the
third one overwriting the second. So instead of a directory called
/usr/include/ss, you end up with just one file called /usr/include/ss with
only the last header file in it. Check out /usr/include/ss on freefall
and you'll see what I mean.

I've modified the beforeinstall target in the libss Makefile to check
for the presence of the ${DESTDIR}/usr/include/lbss directory and to
create it if it isn't already there. Hopefully I did it right.

This install procedure is ALPHA code, and        `--{__________)
may very possibly *DESTROY* the contents of your
ENTIRE DISK!  Please do not proceed with this installation
unless you've adequately backed up your data first!

If any errors occur during this installation, you can see them
by toggling over to the alternate screen - type ALT-F2 to switch
over, ALT-F1 to switch back to the install screen.  The debugging
output on the second screen may be very valuable to us in understanding
your bug report, so please be sure to take note of it when reporting
any failures in the installation!  Thanks!

Menus and scrolling output windows may be traversed with the arrow
and Page Up/Page Down keys.  To suspend the installation at any point,
hit ESC twice.  Hitting TAB will move the focus to different controls.
If you've ever dealt with a DOS installation, you'll know how to deal
with this.

For a more complete description of what's new in this release, please
see the release notes.

For more documentation on this system, it is recommended that you purchase
the 4.4BSD Document Set from O'Reilly Associates and the USENIX Association.
ISBN 1-56592-082-1  We have no connection with O'Reilly, we're just
satisfied customers!

Have fun, and please let us know of any problems you encounter with
this release!

Comments should be sent to:

Bug reports should be sent using the `send-pr' utility, if you
were able to get the system installed, otherwise to:

	bugs@FreeBSD.org

And general questions to:

Please have patience if your questions are not answered right away -
this is an especially busy time for us, and our volunteer resources
are often strained to the limit (if not somewhat past!).

Thanks!
