Well mine isn't quite as old as yours, but is still fairly old now. I really |
| 10 |
have no problem interactively merging them, and it takes little time. |
| 11 |
However since the mini-crusade on it, I thought it to be a decent suggestion |
| 12 |
for perhaps a future version of baselayout? Maybe as Chris suggested for it, |
| 13 |
pop the complete make.conf.example into the stages, with a little note |
| 14 |
somewhere like "copy this to make.conf and uncomment as necessary, or if |
| 15 |
you're comfortable, create your own based on the available variables". |
| 16 |

To be honest, I haven't changed mine once it was set, except to merge in |
| 18 |
the new comments, and haven't excluded it simply to keep track of the |
| 19 |
changes, which I could just as easily do watching a diff roll by of a |
| 20 |
make.conf.example. Also, it's got easily twice the config areas of lilo, and |
| 21 |
y'all provide an example for that. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Either way, I don't really feel strongly enough about it, it was just an |
| 24 |
idea I had to make peace in both camps so we could get on to bickering about |
| 25 |
something new:) |
