Message-ID: <20020722011555.E37640-100000@utility.clubscholarship.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Just curious - because of the resolver bug, every _single_ FreeBSD installation that now occurs has to be accompanied by a cvsup to -stable, etc. Not that this is so bad, but why require every single person - from new to the OS to veteran - to cvsup just to have a usable system ? It seems to me that if a bug like this (resolver) comes up, a 4.6.1-RELEASE is in order, so people can do a normal install and still get a usable system.... comments ?
