but it's no longer a part of the base-system and buildworld works fine
here after deleting them both on disk and from the mtree spec files.
Not objected to by: kris, silence on -audit
under way to move the remnants of the a.out toolchain to ports. As the
comment in src/Makefile said, this stuff is deprecated and one should not
expect this to remain beyond 4.0-REL. It has already lasted WAY beyond
that.
Notable exceptions:
gcc - I have not touched the a.out generation stuff there.
ldd/ldconfig - still have some code to interface with a.out rtld.
old as/ld/etc - I have not removed these yet, pending their move to ports.
some includes - necessary for ldd/ldconfig for now.
Tested on: i386 (extensively), alpha
/usr/share/examples/pppd.
Remove the out-of-place pppd(8) configuration files in etc/ppp,
ppp.shells.sample and ppp.deny.
Make the appropriate changes to the build process, etc/Makefile and
etc/mtree/BSD.usr.mtree, so it all works.
The code will be fixed for all known security vulnerabilities,
and a make.conf(5) knob (ENABLE_SUID_MAN) will be provided for
those who still want it installed setuid for whatever reasons.
The catpaging and setuidness features of man(1) combined make
it vulnerable to a number of security attacks. Specifically,
it was possible to overwrite system catpages with arbitrarily
contents by either setting up a symlink to a directory holding
system catpages, or by writing custom -mdoc or -man groff(1)
macro packages and setting up GROFF_TMAC_PATH in environment
to point to them. (See PR below for details).
This means man(1) can no longer create system catpages on a
regular user's behalf. (It is still able to if the user has
write permissions to the directory holding catpages, e.g.,
user's own manpages, or if the running user is ``root''.)
To create and install catpages during ``make world'', please
set MANBUILDCAT=YES in /etc/make.conf. To rebuild catpages
on a weekly basis, please set weekly_catman_enable="YES" in
/etc/periodic.conf.
