In message <9456.865466424@time.cdrom.com> "Jordan K. Hubbard" writes: : I'd like to argue for the introduction of SHARED=copies as the : hard-wired behavior. If we're ever to create a more compartmentalized : system, as everyone is ranting for, then we need to decouple things : like "bin" and "src". I'd argue for that for other reasons. I don't want my "installed" include files to change out from under me as I do a cvs update in my /usr/src/sys area. This is just wrong, because that's what make install is for. Some people like it, I know, but in general, for most people it is confusing and tends to cause lots of errors. Oh, I tend to have /usr/src on a jaz drive, and if I unmount it, I can't compile *ANYTHING*. Warner
