Having things like postfix and gnome > dumping core seems excessivly bumpy. Upgrading all ports is a pain. I don't think that's a good idea. I've also got changes in mind that require a libc version bump, but they aren't ready now. I was saving them for 6.0. Other folks may also have similar changes in mind. Do we really want to have yet another version bump? For 6.0, can we start off libc at libc.so.YYYYMMDD and move it back to libc.so.6 for the first release? That way we can bump it whenever we want to avoid the "bumpy" rides for -current folk. -- Dan EischenReceived on Fri Nov 14 2003 - 13:00:25 UTC
