Isn't /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin > the "bmake-ified" versions where they're actually built from? Yes, this is the part that needs to be done. Vendor-branch importing the originals, modulo the removal of any components not strictly needed by FreeBSD, is the easy part. Then you need to construct the bmake "skeletons" that actually build the bits. In former times the two were combined and /usr/src/contrib didn't exist at all, but we've made it somewhat cleaner now. > And we're talking about making perl5 the "default" perl, > ie the perl in /usr/bin/perl -- as opposed to the "port" perl, > /usr/local/bin/perl, which already exists and works, right?
