MAKE_IDEA=yes overrode /etc/defaults/make.conf MAKE_IDEA=YES and didn't make idea; it was like putting anything but MAKE_IDEA=YES is treated as MAKE_IDEA=NO. It really shouldn't be case sensitive like that, since most stuff in /etc/rc.conf treats YES=Yes=yes NO=No=no >How-To-Repeat: on any recent release, or current, try making idea with MAKE_IDEA=yes in /etc/make.conf; you get no IDEA. >Fix: whatever parses make.conf >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
