Hi,

I have just committed (r253305) a change the make pkg_install not being built
and installed by default on HEAD.

If you are still relying on it, be careful and add WITH_PKGTOOLS=yes in your
src.conf(5)

I think while a good move, we need to allow a window of development to re-work other HEAD components.

It might also be worth developing a lint-tool to make sure we get every last instance (both from C code and sh code) within our base before we motion to cut a release with this change.

I for one am effected and will have to change things.

If you are referring to bsdconfig's package management,

If you choose to read into it that way, sure. Yes. that's what I'm talking about.

NOTE: I can't be the only person in HEAD that's using pkg_install still.



it is not working anyway
HEAD as we do not and will not provides any pkg_install for HEAD via any of the
usual distribution process: http, ftp, CD.


I'm quite aware that changes will be needed. I'm still interested in a "transition wiki" if one exists.




Secondly if I'm properly reading src.conf.5

If there's a reference to "WITH_BSDCONFIG" in src.conf.5, that needs to be removed. I wasn't aware that it was referenced in there.


bsdconfig is not installed by
default,

Wrong, please see...
http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=252862



which means we have a non default code depending on a now non default
code,

Wrong.


I don't see a problem here, should I?


Yes.
