from Glen Barber (excerpt):
> Changes between -BETA3 and -BETA4 include:
- Add preliminary support for RTL8106E, RTL8168G, RTL8168GU,
RTL8411B, and RTL8168EP.
- Enable fingerprint checking in pkg(8) for FreeBSD-provided binary
packages.
- Remove the WITH_LIBICONV_COMPAT build option.
- Update nvi to 2.1.2.
- Various iconv(3) fixes.
- Fix mergemaster -U by forcing FreeBSD 9 compatiblity in mtree when
mtree is nmtree.
- Fix to freebsd-update(8) in generating the list of old
files/directories versus new files/directories
(FreeBSD-EN-13:05.freebsd-update).
Would preliminary support for RTL8106E, RTL8168G etc be the re(4) driver?
Would these changes be already in HEAD, so if it doesn't work in HEAD on my system, it won't work in 10.0-BETA4?
I believe nvi has no -V or --version switch that tells the version without doing anything else (I looked and tried).
I noticed NetBSD-current had upgraded nvi but find it very difficult to find latest versions online.
