Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-ports@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org How come after doing an install of the ports collection during a fresh install I get those nifty (and mighty handy) README.html files in the directories, but I don't get them when I use CVSup to grab ports? One more thing, why don't we enable passing the makes a flag to specify how many makes we would like to have concurrant, something like NBUILDJOBS=n to pass make a -jn flag. Ports could be marked for parralell builds via a define... that way dependancies that aren't -j safe won't be compiled that way... thanks, -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@rush.net|bright@wintelcom.net] systems administrator and programmer Win Telecom - http://www.wintelcom.net/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
