However, the sample supfiles contain the following: # If your network link is a T1 or faster, comment out the following line. *default compress It seems to me that it is wrong to comment out that line but have compression turned on again in make.conf. Perhaps the supfiles themselves should be changed; this does make more sense as a system global setting than a per-supfile setting. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Change either /etc/make.conf or the supfiles themselves to omit compression. If the latter option is chosen, perhaps an appropriate comment can be added to make.conf. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
