ok just a question here... more of curiosity..

i normally add the fags rw,noexec,nodev,nosuid,softdep

to the /tmp directory

but it seems in openbsd that it does something with /tmp and packages once it's built..

what is it doing and why? and can i assign a variable to allocate the package install to a diffrent location

ps:

if not /var/tmp? dunno because /var/tmp is symlinked to /tmp

Ummm... in OpenBSD /tmp really is 'temporary'. When it reboots all contents are nuked! Not a good "working" directory to use for Open.

ummm, looked at your daily script lately? /tmp is emptied every night. ;)

it's the small things that are making like a pain for me... too many small diffrences in distros.. but thats what gives them personality..

now if only this damm kernel would compile
