I'm kinda fed up installing packages that don't enable themselves.
There should be no package that needs activation, that is if you want a desktop computer, not a server.
'pkg install xorg' is not enough to get a working xorg. You have to enable hal and dbus and then restart (so things come up in the right order; manually starting them doesn't work) in order to get X working.
I use: hald_enable="NO" dbus_enable="NO"
Please install the cron scripts by default. Please then write up a simple rc.conf style setup where the cron scripts can check a config file to see if they should run.
Provided that there will be - an option for every instance of a port wanting to install a cron.d script -- ie., port options plus a settable NO_CROND_SCRIPTS -- and - a fail-safe mechanism to disable all cron.d entries, ie. crond_enable="NO", I feel that installed scripts could be an option. _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
