After a recent 14-STABLE installworld routine, 'make check-old' said /sbin/ipfs can be removed: # sudo make check-old >>> Checking for old files /sbin/ipfs /usr/lib/debug/sbin/ipfs.debug ... but there are still references to it: $ ls -la /etc/rc.d/ipfs -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1060 Sep 7 2023 /etc/rc.d/ipfs $ grep -A1 ipfs /etc/defaults/rc.conf ipfs_enable="NO" # Set to YES to enable saving and restoring # of state tables at shutdown and boot ipfs_program="/sbin/ipfs" # where the ipfs program lives ipfs_flags="" # additional flags for ipfs ... Plus the ipfs(8) man page /usr/share/man/man8/ipfs.8.gz . $ uname -mv FreeBSD 14.3-STABLE stable/14-n273221-cff07c11c708 GENERIC amd64 I didn't see mention of ipfs in UPDATING. Same situation in 15-STABLE and 16-CURRENT, though the latter does have a note about ipfs(8) no longer built by default as of 0ff0c19e7f70 in RELNOTES. Maybe the binary removal is just a first step before a more thorough cleanup? Cheers, sr.
