The rcs log > for that one shows that it got added in late '03, and not manually. baselayout has not included devpts in /etc/fstab since 26 Nov 2001 and even then, it was commented out http://sources.gentoo.org/baselayout/branches/baselayout-1_12/etc/fstab?view=log http://sources.gentoo.org/baselayout/branches/rc- scripts-1_6/etc/fstab?view=log the oldest tag we have is baselayout-1.11.15 (released 22 Apr 2006), and it doesn't include it. the oldest tarball i have is baselayout-1.11.8 (released 15 Dec 2004) as that's when i took over releasing things, and it doesn't include it either. it hasn't been added since that release. so i stand by my statement that very few people will be impacted by this. -mike
