On Tue, Dec 29, 1998 at 04:17:41PM -0800, Jordan K. Hubbard woke me up to tell me: > > Sorry, I had forgotten that the NO_SENDMAIL option in /etc/make.conf > was a 3.0-only feature (with which sendmail can be easily turned off > so that this doesn't happen). You will indeed need to do things as > David suggests (or put a post-world target in /etc/make.conf which > installs the other sendmail - that works for both 2.2.x and 3.x). Speaking of make.conf knobs (which we weren't, but this is close enough that I can call it a continuation thread), how hard would it be to put some way for an 'exclude' list, instead of discrete NO_PERL and NO_SENDMAIL and NO_FOOTMASSAGE options? i.e., 'don't build usr.bin/w and sbin/ping and usr.sbin/lpc', because we're running hacked versions, etc? named is another that springs to mind. Sure, on our -STABLE machines, running BIND8, I installed it in /usr/local/sbin so it doesn't get clobbered, but that was after I clobbered it three times *blush* Hey! Get your finger away from that 'Your patches?' key! I'm no 'make' guru, I wouldn't know where to start on something like that. Would this be POSSIBLE firstoff, then would it be REASONABLY FEASIBLE, then how would we go 'bout it? *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* | FreeBSD; the way computers were meant to be | * "The only reason I'm burning my candle at both ends, is * | that I haven't figured out how to light the middle yet."| * fullermd@futuresouth.com :-} MAtthew Fuller * | http://keystone.westminster.edu/~fullermd | *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
