Wouldn't have building a config(8) that checked for dependencies a smarter and simpler mechanism? This would have allowed us to keep GENERIC as-is and not violate POLA. Apologies if I missed the discussion -- but the signal-to-noise ratio has been quite high on -stable (and -current) through the 5.x series. For Brett -- the LINT kernel is still around -- but it needs to be generated by hand (since it pulls in platform-specific sections). Try a "make LINT" in /usr/src/sys/<arch>/conf. Perhaps this should be part of buildworld and the release procedure so that the proper LINT kernel is available "out of the box". -- Matt Emmerton _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
