as one with a long list of WITHOUT_foo=YES in /etc/src.conf, this is
tempting. but, as you hint, is this not just doubling the number of
borders over which we can argue?
but let's get concrete here.
i suspect that my install pattern is similar to others
o custom install so i can split filesystems the way i prefer,
enabling net & ssh
o pkg_add -r { bash, rsync, emacs-nox11 } (it's not a computer
if it does not have emacs)
o hack /etc/ssh/sshd_conf to allow root with password
o rsync over ~root
o hack /etc/ssh/sshd_conf to allow root only without-password
o rsync over my standard /etc/foo (incl make.conf and src.conf)
and other gunk
o csup releng_X kernel, world, doc, ports
o build and install kernel and world
and then do whatever is special for this particular system.
anything which would lessen/simplify the above would be much
appreciated. anything not totally obiously wonderful which would
increase/complicate the above would not be appreciated.
