cvs update hangs 'amd' in tstile when 'firefox' is running

I've lately noticed a very annoying behavior using recently-updated NetBSD-7 and 'firefox-43.0nb1' from pkgsrc-2015Q4. Client machine using 'amd' to mount home directory from file server. Run 'firefox' on client machine. Perform 'cvs update' on file server with trees on same filesystem served

Re: Ancient BSD's Licensing & Trademarks when porting and/or forking V7 and/ or 2.x - 4.x BSD's

Yeah Thanks. I was having a look at some of the source code and you are right Jeremy. The code licencing for most BSD's before 4.4BSD or non UNIX/32V and Versions 1-7 of Unix is really mixed and unclear as to the licence. Which is sad to some degree and makes it a nightmare. Though i have always

Installing packages with wildcards

If you are me, you hate installing all the gstreamer plugins one at a time. So you will enjoy the following one liner (well, two lines to fit it under 80 characters...): # cd /usr/pkgsrc/ && printf '%s\n' ./multi*/gst-plugins1*/ \ | xargs -I % sh -c 'cd %; make install; cd ../../' I think it's
