> While here, could we repackage it so that it includes sys.mk Good idea. This is exactly how I'm packaging bmake for Debian, bmake executable + sys.mk deb http://mova.org/~cheusov/pub/debian lenny main deb-src http://mova.org/~cheusov/pub/debian lenny main > at the very least? > So that it is mostly independent of mk library and provides built-in rules. And pkgsrc-mk-files is in a separate package in the same repository. Downloadable tarballs are here. http://mova.org/~cheusov/pub/netbsd-tools/pkgsrc-mk-files/ TNF doesn't provide them either. -- Best regards, Aleksey Cheusov.
