Half the people will say: "There should be more stuff in base!"
The other half will say: "There should be less stuff in base!" People don't generally change each other's minds about this because they start from competing definitions of what is good that are 100% opinion in nature. (Spoken as a hardcore advocate of "There should be less stuff in base!") DNS client and DNS server functionality are quite different, and it would be swell if there were a set of BIND-independent client tools that were part of the base so that BIND could, at a minimum, be left out via WITH_BIND=no in src.conf or similar without producing a crippled system. And/or people could install the DNS server of their choice (whether unbound or BIND or whatever) using pkg. If there isn't one already readily available, I might even volunteer to help develop that set of client tools at such time as FreeBSD coding standards allow C++11 in the tree. :) _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
