(my 5.0-dp2 system is the full-distribution install of dp2, including X11, src, ports, and linux-compat, but no extra ports or pkgs installed. This did bring in perl, although I was never asked about perl per se) If my search of the -current mailing list is correct, a plain-shell version of rmuser was done, but apparently was never committed. It also looks like http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/45337 has a version of rmuser rewritten in C. As near as I can tell, no one has rewritten adduser as a plain-shell script or in C. Do we need to get these rewrites in for 5.0-release? Do any of the other remaining perl scripts listed above need to be rewritten for 5.0-release? -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
