Manpage of cx(4) references non existent manpage cxconfig(8). I dont have anything called cxconfig on my -CURRENT system, so I guess we can remove the reference.

This manpage is also exists as src/sbin/i386/cxconfig/cxconfig.8. The reason why you don't have it installed is that sbin/i386/cxconfig is not connected to build.
[CCed to Garrett since he imported cx and cxconfig] What's up with the sbin/i386 directory that appears to have been disconnected from the build for many years. Is there any reason why this directory is disconnected? If the programs don't build, can they just be nuked? The man page for the ancient cx(4) driver refers to the ancient cxconfig(8) program which is disconnected. http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=30447 What should be done about this? - Murray
State Changed From-To: open->analyzed What's up with the disconnected programs in sbin/i386, in particular cxconfig? If these programs don't work then we should remove them from the tree and remove the driver as well.

So where should we go from here? Should these programs just be removed? It looks like there are two separate mechanisms in src/sbin/Makefile for conditionally including subdirectories. I think we should move kget and mount_nwfs into the i386 directory (repo-copy) and I'm not sure what to do about cxconfig. Does this device still work with FreeBSD? Do we just leave it as is? .if ${MACHINE_ARCH} == i386 SUBDIR+= kget mount_nwfs .endif .if exists(${.CURDIR}/${MACHINE}) SUBDIR+= ${MACHINE} .endif - Murray On Tue, Oct 09, 2001 at 11:25:57AM -0400, Garrett Wollman wrote: > > What's up with the sbin/i386 directory that appears to have been > > disconnected from the build for many years. > > It was an idea that I had which later turned out to be a bad one. > > -GAWollman

State Changed From-To: analyzed->closed cxconfig(8) has been connected to build.
