But it's so vague that I had read it at least twice, and still didn't realize the implications of what it says. And there isn't one in /usr/src/contrib (in -stable after my cvsup yesterday). Here's what /usr/src/crypto/README currently says: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ $FreeBSD: src/crypto/README,v 1.2.2.1 2000/07/31 12:26:51 alex Exp $ This directory is for the EXACT same use as src/contrib, except it holds crypto sources. It is the result of an old USA law, which made these sources export controlled, so they had to be kept seperate. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I'd like to see something like this added to make it clearer: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Makefiles in these directories are not used by FreeBSD. These source files are used by Makefiles in src/lib, src/usr.bin, etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ And put the same notice in /usr/src/contrib/README.
