Using: file `grep -a -l -R e bind8` | egrep -v "text|PostScript" I get: bind8/work/src/lib/libbind.a: current ar archive random library and I would guess thats the file doing the nasty work. If anyone wants a copy I can put it up for FTP or just go grab the bind8 port :-) Andrew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
