Considering we are not carrying fortran in base anymore, it would seem logical to kill libf2c, but it must be said the f2c port originates in netlib, I have no idea where the GPL'd libf2c comes from or if there is any significant difference. cheers, Pedro. ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

The one that I find in the base system seems to be a similar match to the one in ports/devel/f2c. Is the one in the base system a pain to maintain or otherwise holding back other work, or has it been made obsolete by something in ports? Is removing it from the base system anything more than just churn? With libobjc, the one in ports looks to indeed be a lot newer, and I'll take it on faith that the gnustep ports automatically installs it, overriding the base copy and making it essentially obsolete.

HEADS UP: Removal of libobjc from the base system
I will be removing libobjc and other Objective-C related components from the base system, as these are extremely outdated, and not used by anything in the base system.

Removal of libobjc
Hi, I was hoping we could remove libobjc from the base system as it's seriously outdated and it's not used by anything on the base system. If there are any objections, please speak up.
