Re: ABI/architecture identification for packages
We should probably pad the version number, and shorten things up.. similar to: package-1.2-fbsd09.1-x86.pkg package-1.2-fbsd09.1-x64.pkg package-1.2-fbsd09.1-ppc.pkg package-1.2-fbsd09.1-ppc64.pkg package-1.2-fbsd09.1-arm.pkg For app "Package" version 1.2, on FreeBSD 9.1 drop the .1 for .0 versions.

This is incredibly helpful, especially for a new user. If you dislike the alias change please explain what bothers you about it? I don't use the first two aliases, so I don't care about them at all. I do however disagree strongly with changing the default options on such a widely used command. This change is disruptive, and it can affect use of ls(1) in scripts. For example, it even sticks the extra characters in the output of "ls -1" (the number 1), which is specifically designed to be used when piping the output elsewhere. Please do not break this. It is also distracting - If I want to see what type of file a particular entry is, why not just run "ls -l"? It's like the tendency some Linux distributions have of "alias mv mv -i", although that can at least be overridden on the command line with "-f". The "ls -F" change cannot be overridden without unaliasing. if ($?prompt) then # An interactive shell -- set some stuff up - set prompt = "`/bin/hostname -s`# " + set prompt = "[%n@%m]%c04%# " + set promptchars = "%#" Many people had alternative suggestions for the prompt. Can you please clarify why you believe your prompt should be the _default_ one? I can't comment as I didn't say my suggestion should be default - but for me the above isn't a bad choice. I would however prefer: set prompt = "%n@%m:%c04 %# " and not set prompt = "[%n@%m]%c04%# " as that then gives you user@host:path in exactly the same format as you need to use with scp, etc. I use the $HOME/bin on my machines but I am not so sure to make this a general thing. Many people expect it, and given that it is the last item in the path it won't affect all that much. It's been in there forever. I think this should stay, it would just be too disruptive otherwise. My $0.02 Instead of using -F to denote filetypes, why not use colors? -G -- it shouldnt affect scripts at all, yet still provide the same sort of feedback.

GhostBSD, PCBSD are two options for "lower expertise" and, as such, are billed as desktop versions of FreeBSD. FreeBSD itself (as well as the other BSDs) is a minimalistic OS, where you can build your own system, making it either into a server, workstation, or even into a desktop system if you so desire. If you want something with point-n-click ease of use, go use one of the two desktop-oriented versions. Both GhostBSD, and PCBSD are just a desktop environment built on top of FreeBSD. PCBSD even has a 9.0 RC out now as well, if you're into testing. PCBSD uses the kde environment, and GhostBSD uses the gnome 2.32 environment. If you want something else, feel free to create your own. There is nothing in the BSD license that prevents you from doing that. Instead of complaining that SOMEONE ELSE should do something that YOU want done, why not just do it yourself. In other words, put up, or shut up. :) Chuck Burns ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
Re: Use of newest version number such as 10.0 instead of current

In fact, the handbook even states that. I don't really see an issue here. -current is a bleeding edge development release, that must be built from source, and SHOULD always point to the latest source code. If you are using pkg_add -r to install software, on anything but release versions, you should expect breakage. If you do not wish to build from source, then you should probably stick to release versions.

Not sure if you already know this, or not but another thing to keep in mind, if a module is not mentioned, or is commented out, then it will still be built, just not included into the monolithic kernel. If you were already aware of this, then my apologies.

make installworld fails on releng9
I had some issues while running make installworld after I sync'd to the latest releng9, on my RC1 install. Now, it appears to failed, while trying to create some links, chfn chsh ypchpass ypchfn ypchsh. These are supposed to be hardlinked to /usr/bin/chpass, except that, since the other files already exist, and are immutable, make installworld was unable to do anything, so I wound up removing the immutable flag on these files and re- running make installworld. I didn't see any mention of this little.. issue, in UPDATING, or in the - current mailing list (yes, I know, 9.0 is no longer technically, current, but since it isn't released yet, I figure it's close enough) -- Chuck Burns ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
