Is it "-e" or "-E"? I have been trying to use "-E" since that what it says in the man page, but maybe it's supposed to be lowercase? For some reason the openpkg build command is not acknowledging my "-E" exclusions or the "-H" hints. To my understanding of these options, I should be able to have multiple "-E" and/or "-H" arguments followed by a package name. Therefore, if I didn't ever want to install ksh or zsh and I prefer sendmail as my mailer daemon, I would use something like "-E ksh -E zsh -H sendmail", right? This should never do anything in regards to ksh or zsh and it should pick sendmail when building an MTA while ignoring the other potential MTAs. Is that how this works? Because it's not working like this for me. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong? -- David M.
