The alternative is more Makefiles for simple extra progs. Granted it has meta mode dirdeps issues but I think that is acceptable as there are other ways to address that. Where is this deprecation coming from? Is it just due to bapt's in-progress (but not working) patch at https://reviews.freebsd.org/D3444 to remove bsd.progs.mk in place of PROGS in bsd.prog.mk? I would like to document PROGS properly. I had no idea how it worked until reading over it tonight. If the plan wasn't to remove PROGS itself I will do so. -- Regards, Bryan Drewery
