Introducing dhcpleased(8)
|
|
Now enabled by default on OpenBSD -current is dhcpleased (8), a dynamic host configuration protocol daemon written by florian@ (Florian Obser), who spoke with us about his work: I suppose this is either the KAME project 's fault, or if we don't want to go that far back, Theo's fault. At g2k16 he floated the idea of a network configuration daemon.

OpenBSD 6.7 and ffs2 FAQs - undeadly.org
|
|
In OpenBSD 6.7, ffs2 is the default for new filesystems during install (with some exceptions). In OpenBSD 6.7, if you create a new filesystem manually (using newfs (8)) you will still get an FFS1 filesystem unless you force -O2 or if the filesystem will be larger than 1 TB. He also points out that this last point has been changed in -current ...

OpenBSD KDE Status Report
|
|
OpenBSD has managed to drop KDE3 and KDE4 in the 6.8 -> 6.9 release cycle. That makes me very happy because it was a big piece of work and long discussions. This of course brings questions: Kde Plasma 5 package missing. After half a year of work, I managed to successfully update the Qt5 stack to the last LTS version 5.15.2. On the whole, the most work was updating QtWebengine.
