Yet another reason why I am a big fan of maintainership. I have stated more than once in the mailing lists why I had yet to make a compat4x dist. For every 4.x release before 5.0-RELEASE, we now have to commit new libs. Since they are uuencoded gzip'ed files -- there is zero lines that remain the same and thus the repo bloat is a big factor. > Log: > Add relevant libraries from our ref4 box. IF you were going to do this, you should have used *released* bits -- in this case from the 4.2 CDROM so we know *exactly* what sources made up the libs. You didn't even note the date the libs were built, so we have zero idea what sources made them up. You also should have done the Alpha bits at the same time if you were going to do the i386 bits -- now you've done a 1/2 job. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) GNU is Not Unix / Linux Is Not UniX To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
