The reason that linker.hints was left behind is due to this file is generated by kldxref. The port/package runs kldxref during the install of the firmware module to update the existing or create a linker.hints file, and when the package is removed, it runs kldxref again to clean up the linker.hints file to only contain the modules in /boot/modules. It has no way to know if it is safe to remove this file. Should Kernel Modules be running kldxref in /boot/modules? Should I change the port to have a do-install target that installs the bwi firmware kernel module so that it doesn't run kldxref during the install? Scot
