From bb34ea886a872a7fcc07f1b6f8972a20718800e5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Frysinger Date: Mon, 16 May 2011 18:00:18 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] drop rc_sys funcs from removal schedule The automagic detection isn't really problematic, and we allow people to easily override this when detection isn't possible. On the other hand, if people haven't configured rc_sys in their rc.conf, the lack of auto detection can easily lead to an unbootable system. Further, we're attempting to have a stable shared library ABI, which dropping funcs from is not feasible.
