I noticed this also - I think somebody broke XF86Setup in the latest incarnation. Have you reported this to the XFree86 folks? X is literally a black box for us and if they give us broken bits to ship then we ship broken bits - I don't even know how to *package* the X distribution. :-) > 4) Ports: a2ps only shows up in its A4 version.

That's one for ports. > 5) Sysinstall: /usr/tmp gets created with bad ownership and permissions. > It should get created with the same permissions as /tmp.

There is room for difference of opinion here, of course;-) Why would anyone want to call it "gawk?" :-) Jordan
