System: NetBSD anarres 1.1A NetBSD 1.1A (_anarres_) #31: Mon Mar 4 13:12:35 EST 1996 dan@anarres:/fs/g/s/dan/NetBSD/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/_anarres_ i386
>Description:
There's no way to avoid compiling or installing the /usr/games
tree. This can be useful on slow or disk-poor machines. A better,
more general way of conditionally building and installing "profiles"
might be nice, but for now I'm doing this the easy way.
>How-To-Repeat:
obvious.
>Fix:
I've defined an environment variable NOGAMES, which works like
NOMAN or NOPROFILE. the following trivial patch to /usr/src/Makefile
implements the change:
