Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-current@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi... Is there any reason for *not* doing the following? Description /usr/src/etc/mtree/BSD.usr.dist has an entry for /usr/local, which specifies policy for directory permissions which may be incompatible with local policy. This policy is enforced whenever you "make world". It's a little annoying having to keep undoing this, and inconvenient to keep patching the file in a ctm tree before each build. Is there any reason to keep this line in BSD.usr.dist - would BSD.local.dist not suffice for those who want to simply adopt the default policy for /usr/local? Fix Remove "local" entry from etc/mtree/BSD.usr.dist. Marc G. Fournier scrappy@ki.net Systems Administrator @ ki.net scrappy@freebsd.org
