This breaks 3rd party software that needs to use uname to figure out what kind of system we're running on. >How-To-Repeat: pst@precipice$ uname -r BUILT-19950425 >Fix: Change the uname -r output to be: 2.0-BUILT-19950425 NOTE: there must not be any spaces NOTE: it should start with '2.0' until 2.1 comes out NOTE: do not use funky characters like parens Just use this string, and we'll be happy. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
