Well, it's more of "the installer we use should be built by our build system". Also I'm supporting this for myself at the moment, I found a bug somewhere back there in the time stream, and it would be nice to commit a bug fix. >> /usr/src/usr.sbin/dfiube_installer >> /usr/src/usr.sbin/dfiube_curses >> /usr/src/lib/libaura >> /usr/src/lib/libdfui >> /usr/src/lib/libinstaller > I wouldn't scatter everything around in the source tree. I thought about that. My intent was to follow the pattern that sendmail (and other contrib) currently has in the source tree. Personally I care not where they actually go, and I do care that I don't create some off the wall structure that doesn't go against or orthogonal to the logic that the current structure has. Can I use BSD.subdir.mk and just move these guys into a subdirectory without changing the above Makefiles (modulo pathnames with ..)? > Of course we should move to an installer written in a scripted language, > but that's not on the agenda for now :) I'd love to work on this someday too. However, I doubt we can get a consensus on which language to use. ;) -- Dave Hayes - Consultant - Altadena CA, USA - [EMAIL PROTECTED] >>> The opinions expressed above are entirely my own <<< One of the most common defenses against really learning something is to believe that one knows it already.
