If 'shutdown' is known not to work and, from the FAQ, apparently does not work by design, why include it? Or, since this is a Unix system and Unices have shutdown commands, make a tiny shutdown script that echoes the FAQ text, instead of supplying a known broken command and assuming someone will consult the FAQ when the command doesn't work and instead spits out random stuff about a missing file, which sure looks like a bug. > > http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/faq.html > > « shutdown does not work, how am I supposed to shut my Hurd system > down? » > > Samuel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
