Re: HEADS UP: security/audit-packages removal
But, to me, it does seem a bit counter user-friendly. In the past
AFAIK security/audit-packages was always optional, it was never forced
on anyone. But now, we are saying "because we're replacing it we're
making the upgrade of pkg_install mandatory". I prefer to leave it
optional just like the install of security/audit-packages always was.
If people want the functionality they know where it is.
I am coming from the view that someone should be able to do
'pkg_rolling-replace -uv' and have the right thing happen. Having a
package go away unobviously seems bad.
By moving audit-packages into pkgtools/pkg_install, we are declaring
that it is nonoptional. I think that's fine.
But, this is all a temporary glitch on the way to a perfectly fine
situation.
