Hi Warner, That's my point. The only place the file is used is during the build process. If the srcconf option is not described on man page for the build process, then it's existence would not be known to someone reading about building (i.e. me). More to the point, if I had come across the file myself, I would have wondered if it was even relevant to this version of the OS as it is not referenced in the only spot it is used (hence my question). I have experienced this confusion in the documentation before. Thanks for confirmation (sort of). I will investigate the route to reporting this to the documentation team.
