Starting in FreeBSD 5.3, the cryptographic libraries were required instead of being optional; and starting at some point in 5.x -- I can't remember exactly when -- the kerberos code stopped being distributed as separate distributions. Since the --branch option had become obsolete, I removed it. :-) > PS On a side note, what happened to the IDS option? I'd like to use it to > exclude files in a backup script.

Since then I have heard from lots of people who used it, so I'm going to add the IDS option back soon. :-) Colin Percival
