Feels fine to me and has a bit of useful information. I am not joking. Like I said, back then I thought it was sufficient to just submit=20 the bug > phrases like "*WHY* the *F**K* isn't in *UPDATING??!??!?!?!*" wasn't in the bug report I cited (for the font) Anyway, nvidia-driver not being in UPDATING is this really a bug? I would have not posted my original missive here if there was somewhere=20 better to write. I know from the other bug cited it was unlikely to be=20 actioned, or acknowledged. I don't know what else to do, apart from=20 use something else, which I really don't want as i've been using=20 freebsd since 1997. The situation as it is right now, is untenable. I can't support end users= =20 depending on ports that change executable names and locations=20 and other properties without notice. This is like the 10th time something like this has happened where it's been major. --=20 J. --6CIfBlwvdonnETot Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEE8n3tWhxW11Ccvv9/s8o7QhFzNAUFAmJPsiMACgkQs8o7QhFz NAUuzxAAr13NoDJszfkCLKAisEQ/rovBOxhI9h5vHkp9LIuAQW1uKpaO1awLZQoe 7UCLlt2sp3hVbWH74qWYV+rj8Diy9Rp+rfHV7/WFzwqOL/E22Ok3c8TLi/pDlwdR BTmbKe7PuO47mCXdkmiPsptzw4I+RvOBRgv37PCxAt7D6mPHj8YI8hQNEtp89c/l k8kEEfR6hp3Tw6bwB/1RqKHsaYaOo0wxbQ8ysImBPPibaT+YB4GAdMJzgBxCvpwy Dd7+FfYv83+IYNqqKubv1I72UtBFeKIG0B8QIwwB/cUucuDX+3rhiOHp+TQJJ3DD JrGanKJpGVut+OiGkpoPTEuhr+0YvbY4C1c8p+RtcKYuwprhw8U7Z+lFIa7zrR8W nwL8anLP67oNQeR0RNrqyVuEaESeuR/HoLmfPqRMSRK6e94jIK4SeXG5UgXn43Zk y1/FqC/3ClAK+TMWTbZvzT7KxLrkUxPNEBYuCTc5GDA3sRSOR5lxiQGLfinK7GKW lf3KSrv8RzKYHTXmFUzmySEantzLXvfkWQkaW4GLifKpPi0alPPeQ2xA+dZAmz0/ cwJDoDemKYJ2BySFyCc3PDiBpkuc9XnMSPmYAMAFl6+Ld2Q6mFcTmEVBsNjNHDLv CdugU8KDKnrHzeUtWJtQ8s20hXElwzsBCj9oi0Y9pRiNGqiIALI= =ydkq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --6CIfBlwvdonnETot--
