Why? I'd love to hear some real reasons for this. NetBSD-current has
just gone fully dynamic, let's see how much space that needs...
christine: {16} uname -srnm
NetBSD christine.energyhq.tk 1.6J i386
christine: {17} du -h /bin /sbin /lib
999K /bin
1.7M /sbin
2.0M /lib
/lib keeps the required shared libs for those programs residing in
/[s]bin.
IMHO it would be beneficial to, at least, have the option to build a
fully dynamic system on FreeBSD.
NetBSD now defaults to fully dynamic, but you can set a knob in
/etc/mk.conf to get the old behaviour, how about something like that?
Cheers,
