Hi Ulrich, I think I'm speaking for a reasonable amount of people when I say: I have no idea what vgrind is used for to begin with. If you can safely and easily get us rid of a binary that's only used for 2 small things when building the world, I'm all for it. The less clutter, the better :) Regards, -- Dam _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
