Hum, because if NetBSD or pkgsrc creates such a file, you never ever have to add anything to rc.local? I haven't looked at the change, but the path you mentions looks like something taken straight out of a 3rd party distribution, which is exactly what rc.local should be used for. I think rc.local used to mention /usr/pkg which is definitely wrong and confusing for the user: that's not how you start pkgsrc services for a long time now. Of course, rc.local theoretically has no purpose, because pkgsrc has everything :) -- Quentin Garnier - cube%cubidou.net@localhost - cube%NetBSD.org@localhost "See the look on my face from staying too long in one place [...] every time the morning breaks I know I'm closer to falling" KT Tunstall, Saving My Face, Drastic Fantastic, 2007.
