The following reply was made to PR conf/44717; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Garrett Cooper" <yanefbsd@gmail.com> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, ralf@akk.org Cc: Subject: Re: conf/44717: [patch] update login.conf and unify login capabilities Date: Fri, 20 Jun 2008 17:56:39 -0700 The bug (prompt vs login_prompt) is fixed in 8-CURRENT; however, this raises 2 points though: 1. Stylistically, should all "login-*" references be replaced by "login_*" (I vote yes for consistency). 2. While grep'ing the rest of the CVS tree I noticed that picobsd's login(1) suffers from the same issue mentioned in the PR. The catch is that I think that usr.bin/login/login.c and release/picobsd/tinyware/login/picobsd-login.c _SHOULD_ be merged to keep things consistent and to also make sure that any bugfixes made to usr.bin/login/login.c get propogated out to picobsd, or picobsd should be removed from the CVS tree as it's extremely out of date -- heck it's based off of 3.0, which was EOL'ed ages ago! Besides, there is the nanobsd project, which appears to be picking up better slack than picobsd is. 2. should be discussed on a regular mailing list. Just my 2 cents. -Garrett
