Thanks. But I didn't intend to change the "netbsd*-gnu" rule. That one corresponds to the system based on NetBSD's kernel and libc (as opposed to knetbsd*-gnu which is NetBSD's kernel with Glibc). Richard said it should also be called "GNU/KNetBSD" and its triplet changed to knetbsd*-gnunolibc (the triplet, however, was not changed since that would break things and we'd have to discuss it with the netbsd*-gnu people first) In any case, the following: > - netbsd*-gnu*) os='GNU/NetBSD';; > netbsd*) os='NetBSD';; Would call it "NetBSD" which is incorrect, so we need to find a better solution. -- Robert Millan "[..] but the delight and pride of Aule is in the deed of making, and in the thing made, and neither in possession nor in his own mastery; wherefore he gives and hoards not, and is free from care, passing ever on to some new work." -- J.R.R.T, Ainulindale (Silmarillion) _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
