Fully agreed here. > 2) These messages should not be displayed at all (i.e. lack of an > xxx_enable variable should imply xxx_enable="no"). I see this message as one more level of supervision. If undefined at /etc/make.conf the value of xxx_enable is "no" from the system's POV (i.e. the service is not strarted). From the admininstrators's POV the port was installed BUT is not used. It's up to admininstrator whether it's OK or not -- just let him remind. -- WBR, Boris Samorodov (bsam) FreeBSD Committer, http://www.FreeBSD.org The Power To Serve _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
