This approach has many advantages compared to the > current one. What if I don't *want* to build all of it? That's the whole reason for the miniports. What is the difference between that and the megaport? If I just want to rebuild -clients, do I have to build the *whole* thing? IMO That approach totally defeats what was just done. You've essentially said, make it a megaport again, but then fake OpenBSD MULTI_PACKAGES. -- AlanE "When the going gets tough, the weird turn pro." - HST To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
