Hi !

> You don't have to remove one thing to use something else.
Bullshit.
I don't want to type "/usr/local/sbin/nsupdate" or rearrange PATH
when I want to use bind9 e.g.
I don't want to type
"gzip -dc /usr/local/man/man8/named.8.gz | nroff -man | less"
to read the real manpage.
So I'll remove the base stuff anyway.

What do you guys have a problem with the clean deinstallation
of a subsystem ?
Colin's changes e.g. are non-intrusive, do not harm the overall
integrity of the system nor do they spit on BSD history.
All that they do is to make life a bit easier for those of us
that want to use alternative software for certain subsystems.
Well isolated subsystems to stress one point.
Not an alternative OS to stress another.

My oh my...

Cheers
Peter
