We want to move towards these varaibles having boolean meanings. USA_RESIDENT is a special case: you are forced to set it because it has legal implications - FreeBSD can prove that the sysadmin made a certain claim regarding the cypto code in the case of legal problem. Also, in the ports tree the values are 'yes' and 'no', not 'YES' and 'NO' (which are used in the base system). Any ports using 'YES' are going to be caught by the sytle police soon. -Jeremy -- FreeBSD - Because the best things in life are free... http://www.freebsd.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
