Hi all! Tonight I synced my source with Release 4.7 and recompiled. Prior to recompiling, I modified the make.conf file to NOT compile a number of items, like games, sendmail, etc. I'd like to try to build a lean system from source. After the entire source compilation process, I still found those items on my system. A review of the man page for make.conf leads me to believe that those items did not compile, yet the old versions still remain on the system. Am I correct? If this is true, how does one go about compiling a lean system with the essentials only? Can the make.conf file be modified in such a way to remove items from the system, like sendmail, games, etc.? I read the man page for make.conf then searched it for the word "remove", but nothing is there. Thanks for the help!
