Yep, it pays to do that even when you're not buying something,
like when you're supposed to be reading the docs, but you're
just casually scanning through, hitting the high spots, and
then doing something like "make build". You know, something
small and inconsequential. :-) Been working with OpenBSD on
an extra computer I got back from my son, since coming back
from the hurricane Katrina evacuation. Didn't realize how
much I'd forgotten. As for the allusion to fine print, it had
to do with XF4, building the xwindows stuff, after I had done
a cvsup to get all new source, ports, docs & so forth. Built
the new kernel. No problem. Did all the necessary prework and
then built all the userland stuff. No problem. Did the after
work stuff like httpd docs, mergemaster, & so on. No problem.
Then I did the prework stuff you're supposed to do before you
mess with XF4, but I failed to read the part about tk-8.4.7
and tcl-8.4.7p1 needing to be installed, or the XF4 build would
fail, which it did. So, remember kiddies, READ THE FINE PRINT!
