FreeBSD 5.2.1 RC Ready For Getting

Posted by Hemos on from the get-more-of-it dept.

MobyTurbo writes "FreeBSD 5.2.1 RC is now available, and now can be downloaded from the FreeBSD site and mirrors, or if you are currently running FreeBSD 5.2 (or for that matter some earlier versions) you can simply cvsup to it. The upcoming 5.2.1 release should fix a number of outstanding bugs in the 5.2 release, and this is a chance to make sure those bugs get fixed!"

    just seen on the telly about 2 million musims on a mountain in mecca yesterday. shame someone didn't land a couple of 747s on top of the fuckers while they were such a good target. see how those raghead cunts like that!!!!!l at least 240 of the savages got crushed to death in a stamped which goes to prove how civilised they are. that is 240 less suicide bombers for the rest of the world to worry about.

    I've always wondered why the Gentoo project didn't use a BSD CVSup system

    Because they're idiots.

    More seriously, what makes you think they have any reason at all? Most things in OSS aren't planned or carefully considered -- they just happen.

  5. CVS must die by axxackall · · Score: -1, Flamebait
    Because CVS is bad and must die, so everything that is based on CVS must die too.

    rsync'ing in Portage is not hardcoded to use CVS - it can sync trees originated/exported from any other versioning system too.

    I heard the 5.2 release was such an embarrassment they had to retract it immediately and try to cover their asses with 5.2.1!
