Yup. Look at all the commit messages for ldconfig. It may be worthwhile getting (and tracking) the CVS tree so that these are permanently available. See CVS(1), CVSUP (in ports) and CURRENT/STABLE in the handbook. > > b) Running CURRENT when you are not ready to hack on it yourself > > Hey, I am just getting started here, aren't I allowed a few mistakes? Hehehe! Mistakes, sure. Don't get into the habit of believing that this is _support_. The situation is a bit different with STABLE, but there is still much responsibility for you to keep up-to-date, and not rely on the helpdesk :-). The _releases_ are the supported products.
