Sorry for asking a question here but I fear I won't get any response in freebsd-questions ... From=20time to time I give a course titled `Introduction into Program Development in the UNIX Environment'. I was happy all the time with the `ar' utility of FreeBSD not providing an `s' flag - so I could demonstrate the difference between an object file archive and a random library (after applying `ranlib'). A few days ago, first time with 3.1-R, I was very surprised that the archive I created during the course as an example immediately had a symbol table (`s' seems to be applied by default)! `Ar' is now GNU `ar' - as far as I've seen. No problem with that - in the future I will know. But: How can I best keep track of such changes? Any suggestion? // // Konrad Heuer ____ ___ _____= __=20 // Gesellschaft f=FCr wissenschaftliche / __/______ ___ / _ )/ __= / _ \ // Datenverarbeitung mbH G=D6ttingen / _// __/ -_) -_) _ |\ \/= // / // Am Fa=DFberg, D-37077 G=D6ttingen /_/ /_/ \__/\__/____/___= /____/=20 // Deutschland (Germany) ----- The Power to Serve ----= - // http://www.freebsd.org // kheuer@gwdu60.gwdg.de // To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
