From 2453488720cf8ce2d54d4a6ecdf9659f5029ad45 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: gdt Date: Wed, 1 Jun 2022 12:26:04 +0000 Subject: bootstrap/README: Slice platforms more finely Separate active use, maintained, and published bulk builds. This amounts to a new users/maintained-but-no-bulk section for FreeBSD. Sort OpenBSD into "platforms with active use" based on list comments. Drop mention of Darwin, as I can find on evidence that Darwin continues to exist outside of macOS in any meaningful way. --- bootstrap/README | 24 ++++++++++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) (limited to 'bootstrap/README') diff --git a/bootstrap/README b/bootstrap/README index 8866fe2777e..637da05f031 100644 --- a/bootstrap/README +++ b/bootstrap/README @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -$NetBSD: README,v 1.32 2022/04/06 00:24:05 schmonz Exp $ +$NetBSD: README,v 1.33 2022/06/01 12:26:04 gdt Exp $ To try to get pkgsrc working on your system, please try the following as root: @@ -92,24 +92,32 @@ Platforms with a * are believed to be non-working; see the README for the platform for perhaps more information.
