One of us is confused....

here is what I did

abs

rsync -var /var/abs/extra ~/

makeworld --clean --log --noconfirm --syncdeps --rmdeps 
/home/packages/testing .

the error I originally posted came from the log file

Can you point out where I changed the build file/process? or attempted 
to enable the info files?
