If I start /stand/sysinstall, and go to "configure installed system/add packaged software" section, and source is ftp.freebsd.org, the menu of available apps seems to be "not right". Most entries are "no description provided", some apps are listed twice, right on top of each other, (the library for pidentd is one example) , the xview3.2.1 stuff wouldn't install, it couldn't find files to satisfy dependancies... I've used the past few releases of FreeBSD, and that just looks whacked to me. :) - Bob Governments, like diapers, should be changed often, and for the same reason. bjg@otherspace.net | http://www.otherspace.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
