The issue, as far as i can tell, is that we have two pre-install targets, one run before and one after the credentials switch, and the question was whether there is a real need to have both, or just the latter suffices. My position was that probably one can consider the pre-no-su-install step as part of the 'build' target, but maybe i am missing something ? cheers luigi > While there are still some problems doing it as an user (in some cases when > shared libs are involved), some ports can be tested this way. > > Bye, > Alexander. > > -- > http://www.Leidinger.net Alexander @ Leidinger.net: PGP ID = B0063FE7 > http://www.FreeBSD.org netchild @ FreeBSD.org : PGP ID = 72077137 > If you have to park six blocks away, you will find two > new parking spaces right in front of the building > entrance. >
