I like the notion that everything in /usr/local is self-contained in /usr/local and as such, all the startup stuff should only rely on the /etc/rc.subr at most. I just had a good notion that maybe there should be a /usr/local/etc/rc.d/rc.conf (or something similar). Packages (with the notable exception of X) should avoid putting stuff into /etc, it makes people that nfs mount /usr/local a real PITA. -gordon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
