Are you crazy? :) >Environment: FreeBSD 3.2-STABLE (also present in -CURRENT as well) >Description: This patch fixes some out-of date info, namely that setup(1) would appear in 3.1 (it didn't), and that sysinstall should have died 3 years ago (a date current as of sometime last year). I also changed the last part to not mention specific year amounts, so that it won't need to be updated as often in that respect. >How-To-Repeat: N/A >Fix: This patch is against the latest -stable version, but also applies cleanly (no rejected hunks) to the latest -current version: --- /usr/src/release/sysinstall/sysinstall.8 Wed Jul 28 02:28:58 1999 +++ sysinstall.8 Sun Aug 15 01:01:37 1999 @@ -24,7 +24,7 @@ .\" .\" $Id: sysinstall.8,v 1.14.2.4 1999/07/19 11:49:51 jkh Exp $ .\" -.Dd August 9, 1997 +.Dd August 15, 1999 .Dt SYSINSTALL 8 .Os .Sh NAME @@ -82,7 +82,7 @@ color when using the ``xterm-color'' termcap entry). .Pp This product is currently at the end of its life cycle and will -be replaced in FreeBSD 3.1 (hopefully) by the +eventually be replaced by the .Xr setup 1 utility. .Sh RUNNING SCRIPTS @@ -783,8 +783,8 @@ .Pa /usr/src/release/sysinstall/install.cfg for a sample installation script. .Sh BUGS -This utility is a prototype which lasted approximately 3 years past -its expiration date and is greatly in need of death. +This utility is a prototype which has lasted several years past +its expiration date, and is greatly in need of death. .Sh AUTHOR Jordan K.
