Convert FreeBSD into a bunch of packages and let binary installations : with sysinstall (or some future installer) pick and chose or pick : from a short list of "standard" systems. Offer alternatives where : available. netbsd just did this with their syspkg stuff. : 2. Finish the /etc/rc.d/ work so it mirrors the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ : system the ports already use. That way a buildworld with : NO_SENDMAIL=yes in /etc/make.conf or not installing the sendmail : "package" in the future sysinstall (see previous item) would prevent : an /etc/rc.d/sendmail from being installed. I'd love to see this as well. Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
