Strictly experimental; I > have no idea how practical it would be. I'm mainly considering build time here. If I have to rebuild my jail for ev= ery package the time to build a full set will increase by an order of magnitude. Hmm, maybe something like mount_null would allow me to reset a jail pretty fast... In the meantime just using portupgrade in the jail does work, I'm still tweaking the set of packages to build though, and how to automate this. Also I ran into a nice side effect of building in a jail yesterday, in which the linux-base_8 port needs to 'mknod' a device node, which is not possible= in a jail. I made a workaround where the build user can ssh back into the host using an empty passphrase and then use sudo to mknod the device at the corr= ect place. Talk about the long way around... > Good luck, anyway... The same to you. Cheers, --Stijn --=20 "I'm not under the alkafluence of inkahol that some thinkle peep I am.
