recent libdisk changes. (sysinstall is guilty of using `private' in
quite more places, but since this ain't in library code, it's not that
important.)
Whenever possible, better not use C++ reserved words...
Fixed DPADD again.
mk/bsd.README
Don't list the LIBXXX identifiers here. Describe them better.
mk/bsd.prog.mk
Updated the list of LIBXXX identifiers.
- recently added library libdisk.a wasn't mentioned (required for sysinstall)
- old objects kz*.o weren't mentioned
- old libraries libc_pic.a, libcom_err.a, libf2c.a, libg++.a, libgcc_pic.a,
libgmp.a, libipx.a, libkeycap.a, libss.a and libxpg4.a weren't mentioned
- old libraries libgnumalloc.a and libftp.a no longer exist
- old library libmp.a was said to not exist
- deprecated links libfl.a and libln.a weren't mentioned
1. Revamp package installer to use new dependency lists and also
pkg_add's new `read from stdin' mode to prevent a copy of the package
from hitting the disk unnecessarily.
2. More fixes for running "not as init" - don't get upset if CDROM already
mounted, do the right thing instead.
3. If running as init, assume first-time install and _don't show the
(W)rite option in the fdisk screen.
4. Many other little tweaks, some of which will have to wait for fuller testing
until I can create a boot floppy (testing certain system-destroying
features of sysinstall can be a royal pain). Expect some more commits.
o Caution against use of `W' options in label/partition screens (dangerous!)
o Make various types of debugging dreck conditionalize on DEBUG flag
o Make a fake /var/db/mountdbtab file so new system doesn't complain
o Apply uniform permissions to entire /usr/X11R6 tree.
o Set erase character to ^H for all interactive commands.
o Don't panic if user exits upgrade shell, reboot.
o Document dangers of `W' options in help screens also.
1. Fix the bogon I introduced that made some root filesystems fail to be
made with `unable to make filesystem on sd1s1a' or some such error
message.
2. Latest installment in the never-ending chapter on making FTP do the right
thing on a cruel internet.
3. Make `express install' a truly express install and split off what it used
to do into a `novice install' that's even more geared to the novice
by asking questions in order, rather than forcing them through the menu
interface.
4. Make anonymous FTP setup truly DTRT.
5. Build lndir directly into sysinstall and make the novice install offer
to set up the ports tree. Also make the ports setup truly explanatory
about what it's doing, and always link the ports destination to /usr/ports
if necessary so that bsd.port.mk doesn't need to be tweaked.
