If I'm not mistaken 2.2.6-RELEASE has the same behaviour -- I once wanted to install the X packages too and, after selecting bin,docs,man,src and choosing the X servers and additional packages and after rebooting I realised that everything but X was installed; after this, when I tried /stand/sysinstall, it did install the X packages but without any pre-/post- installation scripts, it didn't run ldconfig on /usr/X11R6/lib. This is just from my memories, I haven't check this in detail, I thought I did smth. wrong. > > So, has anyone else experienced this, have I found a real problem here, > or is my CD somehow corrupted? > > Thanks, > > Tom > Ady (@freebsd.ady.ro) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
