At least, "net" and "netinet" should not be moved. The headers will always be installed in the right place in /usr/include: Makefile's are editable. As far as kernel compiles, symlinks can be created in the work directory as one possible solution. For example, sys/compile/i386/GENERIC/netinet -> ../../../../net/inet. This would most likely result in netinet _not_ being split up. > -Kenjiro -- John Baldwin -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ PGP Key: http://www.cslab.vt.edu/~jobaldwi/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
