Yes, we do. Also, it is releng's intention to change to a stage4 for normal new install stages. It will contain the most needed pkgs for new installs, and allow the @system set to be trimmed down more. It is entirely possible, to at that point, then create smaller chroot/container images without undue hardships and complexities for new installs. But please let's not sidetrack this thread more with this tangent. That's a different bikeshed to paint. - -- Brian Dolbec <dolsen> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.1 iQJ8BAEBCgBmBQJWuNEMXxSAAAAAAC4AKGlzc3Vlci1mcHJAbm90YXRpb25zLm9w ZW5wZ3AuZmlmdGhob3JzZW1hbi5uZXRBNUQ3Qzc0RTA4MUNDNzBEQjRBNEFBRjVG QkJEMDg3Mjc1ODIwRUQ4AAoJEPu9CHJ1gg7YTVQQAJhStpgaDT2pqMsVuTO3HZx6 XfaZoNtcN01nqOttBwQ4C+17n8Rv2/d52Zu6lc3YSrdPgHRGOVT0LU8CyzZlz8Rw rnFeo5oZAZheqlA/4UzRMOkhXbOvT4FRDL1bF/q5t00h+pADoPDSC3ZIyS8enkvr Evm3DYpDDT40pM5f7cwlAqRarJL604XDgFmU5Qhtmtnxw+TRIicGTwHoWe4fk77u PNm3ZrU+ea7b2XAwKH+oDVM0UDMfFLi37APGd4R2VC0jJmp0msPnNfKRvpURcNo5 3iZMMDuM7vqJergB2yCfiqaGdHmaEPX1PLpQEuhgLWS0b6lCN4JKenYpRdNVLjZG FqOEtSVUs9iNt++XmsZ6goLQAczePOxqR/aAJOMrXuhePiuXMRmm1MBQK2yRRo6q 6MU/lj+1YAzEWMyOZH9GNzQhCl1cBj+futm6mRTWYsNCaKOGi/ocnIHiQpXyKf/U dp/hlvx2rhqMz6eqO60OaJHaKzbCV6EbGb3kv0AsC4VGGFS+DpoUen21aetBh82O aE6c/hKNvsgARQl0mpwFDttSnB24oRr8E9pR5Rvf7iQJwL7h/5gHvs2YQRL9PxFR vSN1R67Sge9JrAzQ/OmEBbl5exO2a1/0HShfdfvU6oA/lDShFHyttJXYxGi0tDym A2Bo/b9FonL7aEmwilCH =PiEj -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
