I applied the patch as suggested by Reko, but it seemed to make no
difference
After the patch recompiling and linking at least SASL is needed after

I think it was a directory called empty/ that couldn't be removed
unless the flag was unset. This makes this step neccessary when

Hello,
i have quite a common question i think but my google skills didn't bring
up anything decent. If you use binary freebsd-update to upgrade between
major releases it starts comparing config files at some point. After the
manual merges it start's "automerge" and asks you:

Hello!
Anton is right, really the handbook says that it MAY contain, so it's not
necessary that after every build there will be some files with the immutable
flag.

Todays ports tree has lang/perl5.10 and lang/perl5.12. A new 8.1-RELEASE

Should I leave this as is or should I be using 5.12?

I have some data drives formatted with ext4, which I'd like to access

If you prefer terminal applications you may get happy with blackbox. Its
one of the smallest, but fully functional GUIs. And it is still kosher
according to Unix standards. Its my favorite, I even prefer it to
fluxbox, what is a little fancier.
