I would find the removal of ftpd to be very inconvenient unless there was a port/pkg to install it from. If there is a port, it would only be useful if I could set PREFIX=/usr when building/installing it, so that its behavior when installed as a port/pkg would be identical to how it was when it was part of base (in terms of where its config files are located). -- Ian _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
