Ah yes: http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/basesrc/bin/pax/pax.c From 4.4 Lite, which would have been around '92. When was the first OpenBSD release? Ah, yes, around '96. Hrmmmm. Guess OpenBSD probably got it when they forked from NetBSD in late '95 then, eh? Might want to point out to the Debian folks that Keith Muller actually did his work on pax(1) at UC San Diego. Of course, maybe by "the OpenBSD version" they mean that it lacks the -M flag (use mtree(8)--another BSD thing, from 4.3 Reno; it does the same stuff that the free version of Tripwire does--format), since Luke Mewburn added that,, and he's a NetBSD developer. I love it when Theo's half-truths get perpetuated like this. No, really, I do. -- gabriel rosenkoetter gr@eclipsed.net Attachment:
