>Description:
My tutorial explaining how to correctly 'make world' has been available on
my own web space for a while, and supercedes the copy currently on the
FreeBSD web site (which is out of date in a number of places).
I have a PR outstanding (docs/5600) which asks for feedback from the project
on what to do with the tutorial -- personally, I'd like to see it (with
some rewriting) folded into the handbook, a task I'm willing to undertake.
So far, no one's got back to me on this. I don't have a problem with that,
I know everyone's very busy. However, in the mean time people are still
seeing the old tutorial.
The enclosed patch updates the URL for the tutorial on the FreeBSD web
pages to point at the copy on my webspace. This way people can get the
most up to date version immediately, and I can wait until someones got
some free time to respond to my other comments.
>How-To-Repeat:
N/A
>Fix:
Apply this patch. For completenesses sake, you should probably also
remove the tutorials/upgrade directory.
