https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D242971 --- Comment #1 from Mariusz Zaborski <oshogbo@freebsd.org> --- Hello Philippe, The headers which are installed needed for FreeBSD to work even when WITHOUT_CASPER users provide. The difference is how the headers behave. The headers provide stub functions for the Casper library. For example, if we are using cap_gethostbyname thanks to this header, it wi= ll be changed to the gethostbyname without changes in the code. We install the man pages because the function will appear in multiple base tools, which will be built with the stub functions. Although I don't have a strong opinion about that, and if there will be an urge to change that I wi= ll not resist :) The make delete-old removes the libraries/man pages that are not used anymo= re with and without Casper. Hope that this helps, Mariusz --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
