I think that mtree should read src/etc/master.passwd :and src/etc/group to get the uid/gid values. This avoids the dependency :of the hierarchy on awk etc as build tools. The new mtree version :would need to be bootstrapped early like make is. The installworld step :should do the ${DESTDIR}/etc update (also adding any missing .conf files :too). : :-- :John Birrell - jb@cimlogic.com.au; jb@freebsd.org http://www.cimlogic.com.au/ :CIMlogic Pty Ltd, GPO Box 117A, Melbourne Vic 3001, Australia +61 418 353 137 This sounds like a clean solution.
