Just finished rebuilding and installing the world and the kernel by the "canonical" method. In using mergemaster, I find myself puzzled by the locale stuff in mtree. I have not installed a lot of locales, haven't even started X11 at all yet, but the updates seem to want to put a lot of stuff about locales in BSD.X11-4.dist and BSD.local.dist. Is all that locale stuff necessary there if you haven't installed all those locales? (I tried to merge BSD.local.dist, and I think I botched it.) I'm not really clear on what mtree does, in case that isn't obvious. Search the web only turned up stuff about an alternative to tripwire, but I suppose it might be mergemaster's db configuration? (Scanned man on mtree and /usr/src/etc/mtree/README, but it hasn't sunk it yet.) Appreciate a cluestick if anyone cares to hit me with one. -- Joel Rees <rees@ddcom.co.jp> digitcom, inc. $B3t<02q<R%G%8%3%`(B Kobe, Japan +81-78-672-8800 ** <http://www.ddcom.co.jp>; **
