* You were right, it doesn't by default :-). It only uses it if MAKE_LOCAL * is defined, and it does it last in that case. I was looking at `make * distribution'. Anyway, `make hierarchy' sets the ownership of /usr/local * to bin:bin. I thought MAKE_LOCAL has been deprecated (1.126 of src/Makefile). Jordan, do you mind if I remove it from src/etc/Makefile too? * Make all mount points and root directories owned by root:wheel. What does that translate into in mtree-speak? ;) I don't think there is any guarantee that /usr/local is a mount point. * This is just broken. Installing packages shouldn't touch anything not * directly used by the packages. But this is the only way we can set the permissions of subdirectories correctly. If someone has a better idea, I'm all ears. :) Satoshi
