I don't really see a reason *not* to commit it. The current behavior of 'kbdcontrol -l glorb' is: 1) try ./glorb 2) try ./glorb.kbd 3) try /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/glorb.kbd What the patch does is add a step before 3), so the sequence becomes: 1) try ./glorb 2) try ./glorb.kbd 3) try /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/glorb 4) try /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/glorb.kbd which makes more sense in my opinion. Of course you can argue that if we remove 2) the current behavior becomes consistent, but I'd be quite surprised to hear anyone here seriously suggest removing perfectly working functionality from a FreeBSD component. Anyway, I'm committing this patch now. -- Noone else has a .sig like this one. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
