>Synopsis: Interrupting man results in half-baked man page
>Description:
Interrupting man while it is waiting for the page to be formatted
results in a zero length file or a half-baked file.
>How-To-Repeat:
Inetrrupt man while it is formatting a page.
>Fix:
Pay more attention to the return value from the system command.

idempotent or anything. I'll make pkg_manage deal with it another way
until it's been confirmed one way or the other by Marc.

been intention, it allowed for weird section names like "3xyzzy". We
don't have them, either.)

how embarassing ! This turns out to be a bug in infptrace.c. Below
is a patch. Could some kind soul apply it ?

of the linker to enforce linking of modules in command line order it is
not possible to link gdb shared with -lcompat.
*HACK ALERT*
Removed -lcompat from LDADD and bring in the necessary functions out of
libcompat as a source module until the linker can be fixed.
underlying bugs which are caused by mixing static/shared libraries with
this change in place.
The shlib code is not capable of supporting this feature in it's present
state and will need significant modifications in order to do so.
register ourselves as an NIS version 1 UDP server to pacify older SunOS 4
ypbinds that seem to insist on having one around. All this does is allow
ypserv to respond to DOMAIN_NONACK requests that are periodically
transmitted by ypbind: the server will not actually work as an NIS v1
server in any other way.
Unlike the mainline code, which implements this as a compile-time
option, this feature can be turned on with the newly-added -k flag
at runtime.
Bunped version number to 0.13. (What the hell.)
Updated the man page to reflect this change, also made a couple of small
edits to reflect the recent changes in the /etc/rc* setup.
ypxfr can't easily be reduced down to one file like yppush because it
needs to do certain special things (such as binding to a specific
machine (the NIS master)) which the yp_*() functions in libc don't
allow.
in libc, we can get rid of the private/special copies of yp_*.c
files and rpcgen them at compile time instead. This leaves us with
just one unique source files: yppush.c

added *.info and *.db to the default "ignore" list in cvs to avoid obviously
common mistakes.
that ypxfr is supposed to log messages to /var/yp/ypxfr.log if it exists,
using syslog() makes more sense, especially since ypserv does the same
thing already. Try to use stderr by default, and use syslog() if stderr
is not a tty.
Also update the man page to reflect this change.
NIS maps (get rid of extraneous slash a la /var/yp//domainname).
Have ypxfr log all output to /var/yp/ypxfr.log if stdin is not a
tty. This should allow logging to be done when ypxfr is called from
inside ypserv in response to a yppush request.
Update man page to reflect the change (and fix a typo).
use it. :-)
It now explicitly requires the specification of a directory to import
from, either as an argument to the script, or by asking the user about
it. (Previously, it implicitly used `.', like cvs import does.)
Also implemented an option `-n', which does essentially the same like
the overall CVS option `-n': show only what would have been done,
don't do any commitment. Note that since the modules' database is
checked out in place (and not commited back), it will erroneously be
reported as to be imported, too:
cvs import: Importing /home/ncvs/ports/foobar/foo/modules
I ports/foobar/foo/modules/CVS
N ports/foobar/foo/modules/modules
This is an unwanted side-effect, but gives the user the option to see
if the `ed' magic did the right thing when editing modules/modules.
Rod, can you please check the function ``checktag'' in the script if it
will be restritctive enough?

members over shared library members. This modification causes the linker
to use the first definition it sees for a symbol instead of having
priorities based on the library type. This modification should allow
gdb to compile again.

Remove private mkdir command for /usr/include/g++, this is now
handled by mtree.
Make the whole file fit in 80 column output, sort the SRCS list and

Use $Id$ instead of $FreeBSD$ since we pulled support for this.
Add DPADD to match LDADD and now include <bsd.prog.mk> to define
the DPADD values (This is a hack until the .mk stuff can be corrected
so that ${LIB*} is visiable in bsd.lib.mk.)
Optimize beforeinstall target by eliminating a subshell.
default switches, template functions get EXTERNAL linkage in each file
in which they occur, causing multiple definition errors during
linking. The enclosed patch (from gnu.g++.bug) appears to solve the
problem (I enclose the accompanying message as well).
This patch fixes the multiply defined template functions bug
which was introduced in 2.6.1.

one is much more intelligent, not only that it would accept multiple
man page locations, it also behaves like ``make'' in that it will only
deal with cat pages that are out of date (by default).

alows us to find the length of any counted BB. This is a cheap and somewhat
reasonable measure of actual cost.
