There's PR with most of my fixes (not by me) which didn't get committed, so I didn't feel that adding one more PR will help it any further. The make(1) way didn't work for me, perhaps I don't know how to use it, and it's not explained anywhere I looked. The "build" way is broken a bit. The thing is that while it's not severely broken, and fixing it requires some simple steps no one cares enough to do it. So, the point is, seems that noone cares about it any longer. The last commit to picobsd tree was months ago. --Roman Shterenzon, UNIX System Administrator and Consultant [ Xpert UNIX Systems Ltd., Herzlia, Israel.
