Hi Eckhart.

Thanks for reporting this!

Although _I am_ interested about this issue, I'm really curious in
knowing how you reached a system without having netbase first.

Was this the effect of a manually purged/pruned system pkgs?  Was this
the result of a quite minimal fresh installation? If yes, using which
media/how?

This would help me deciding if this situation is ideal or just a mere
situation anyone could arrive too.



Cheers,

Dererk
