History has taught me it takes a long time for this type of breakage to usually surface in a noticable way. Also I think until you merged this last ${name}_limits thing it actually didn't cause an issue, except for the few like me running diskless systems and or seperate /usr. This latest issue is a name space collision between base and ports. People who see limits issues due to missing /usr files usually know how to work around it, and they do, they just cp /usr/bin/limits to /bin, and do not submit a bug report or send an email. > >> See https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=206291 > > > > This bug is rat holed as it has no FreeBSD-foo@ in the cc list. > > > > > > -- > > Rod Grimes rgrimes@freebsd.org > > > -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@freebsd.org
