Having config/ not come along with the ksrc distribution or get updated as part of src-sys with cvsup has been a major cause of agony for people who want to just update the kernel in order to fix some bug but don't want to cvsup src-all just so they can get a bloody config(8) which works with it! Justin's partial CAM changes to config have essentially made that an absolute requirement for anyone trying to get -stable, and it would be really nice if the -stable user got both sets of bits with one target. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
