To: freebsd-current@freebsd.org Date: Wed, 3 Jul 1996 09:41:16 -0500 (CDT) Reply-to: nordquis@winternet.com (Brent J. Nordquist) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL25] Content-Type: text Sender: owner-current@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I noticed in my latest compile of -current that libtcl and tclsh want to compile. (I removed them from the Makefiles as someone suggested so that the compile would succeed.) I had pulled all the source from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/src, but the contrib directory doesn't appear to be there. In fact, after examining the ls-lR.gz file, I can't find it anywhere under FreeBSD-current on the FTP site. Am I missing something, or is sup the only way to get the contrib stuff? I know there was a huge discussion about TCL going into contrib, but it seems a little strange to me that suddenly you can't get the whole source tree and compile; you need some external contrib pieces for it to succeed... -- Brent J.
