Solved [Solved] /etc/src.conf entries have no effect

[getopt]

A /etc/src.conf with entries as explained in src.conf() has not the expected effect after make buildworld and make installworld.

# cat /etc/src.conf
# see man 5 src.conf
# source build options
# these settings will apply to every build involving the FreeBSD source tree

The WITHOUTs were still installed. How should this be done correctly?

Make sure you also run make delete-old. The new install didn't install them but there may still be some old ones around, they are not removed with the installworld process.

This should work too: make -DBATCH_DELETE_OLD_FILES delete-old

There's also a delete-old-libs target that is supposed to be run after you're sure that none of the binaries in you're system is using the obsolete libraries. In reality it's quite safe to do make delete-old delete-old-libs in one go everytime you're updating/upgrading the system.
