Sorry for stating something here, but after the recent pkg_* threads I found it was worth mentioning this. I thought we were trying to get all functionality in the already existing pkg tools. What was wrong with creating patches against pkg_delete and fixing that up so that the base system benefits of this? I mean, this tool clearly duplicates pkg_delete's functions and probably expands it in a few ways. -- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven Network- and systemadministrator bART Internet Services / Tel: +31 - (0) 10 - 240 39 70 VIA NET.WORKS Netherlands To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
