Or correctly make it:
ln -sf /usr/sbin/rmt ${DESTDIR}/etc/rmt
and move this command to /usr/src/etc/Makefile distribution: target.
Actually I am thinking along the lines that we should possible add
the target install_etc: to the various Makefile's that want to drop stuff
in /etc and have /usr/src/etc/Makefile do call backs to the other
Makefiles with something like this:
ETC_MAKEFILES= share/termcap usr.sbin/rmt ...
distribution:
...
for i in ${ETC_MAKEFILES}; do \
cd ${.CURDIR}/../$i; \
${MAKE} install_etc; \
done
...
With this in place we could almost empty /usr/src/etc., config files
would be back with the sources that use them (more likely to keep up
to date that way).
