Hi,

   A quick question before I try to come up with a fix and
patches for a problem that I believe to be a moving target.

   I have run 'make release' to create 4.0-20000306-SNAP with
sources current as of 2am March 6th.  When running sysinstall
and selecting <ALL> the encryption components, sysinstall
fails trying to locate crypto/des.inf. When looking through
/usr/src/release/Makefile, it doesn't appear that des.inf
and des.?? are created anymore, but instead located in
crypto.inf and crypto.??.

   So, I believe sysinstall needs to be updated so des.??
is not installed anymore.

   A 2nd question, do we need the concept of a default
crypto mechanism when installing <ALL> the encryption
components? Currently, it appears that 'last untarred'
wins for libcrypto.

   Comments Welcome!

Thanks,
John
