Date: Sun, 02 Feb 2003 12:26:02 +0000 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed Message-ID: X-OriginalArrivalTime: 02 Feb 2003 12:26:02.0820 (UTC) FILETIME=[401B8840:01C2CAB6] 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 Hi, I'm working on a little script and I was just wondering when bzip2 became part of the FreeBSD base (which version of FreeBSD, not a date)? The bzip2 man page does not state this information (nor does man gzip for gzip) but tar has the -j (or -y) option which includes bzip2 support. I guess I'm asking if it is a safe bet to state that bzip2 is installed (by default) on any FreeBSD 4.X release or newer? _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.
