      I've just set up a new BSD8.3 install and followed the steps in the DevWiki

      After running menu.sh, when I try to set the Version, choosing "RELENG_2_1", it fails with the message:

      cat: pfsense-build.conf: No such file or directory

      Press enter to continue…

      Can someone post the missing file?  (or put it back in the git repo?)

        Problem solved - after some reading through source in the git, a workaround was:

        /home/pfsense/tools/builder_scripts
        touch pfsense-build.conf

        With an empty file in place, the builder scripts will populate it with default values.

        Seems to be a bug in the builder_scripts/set_version.sh file.  Line 52 should check whether the file exists first.
