Hi all,

I have a script to create a QEMU image of 9front for
<https://builds.sr.ht>.  One target is to produce a current snapshot
from Git.  So I do

   sysupdate
   cd /sys/src
   mk nuke
   mk all
   mk install

The result creates a number of questions, here is one:

The procedure does not re-create these binaries:

        --rwxrwxr-x  116923 Jul 18  2021 /amd64/bin/import
        --rwxrwxr-x  175444 Jul 18  2021 /amd64/bin/oexportfs
        --rwxrwxr-x   64485 May 24  2020 /amd64/bin/ape/cp
        --rwxrwxr-x   68120 May 24  2020 /amd64/bin/ape/mv
        --rwxrwxr-x  298263 Apr  3  2021 /amd64/bin/games/jukebox
        --rwxrwxr-x  182430 Apr  3  2021 /amd64/bin/games/jukefs
        --rwxrwxr-x  162044 Apr  3  2021 /amd64/bin/games/playlistfs

These are leftovers from older versions or 9front, it seems.  Should
they just be deleted?  Are they missing from "mk all" by accident?  Or
do they serve some other purpose?

Thanks

The source for all those programs has been removed.  They should be
safe to remove, unless you yourself are relying on them in some way.

I see they are in the latest distribution no more, so I will just ignore
the issue.

Thanks, benny

rather late to the discussion, but i believe mv and rm where added to ape as the plan9 versions where incompatible enough with posix that configure would not run.

i am no fan of configure, but having gone down the road of trying to work around it (with mkmk), i think configure support is the lesser evil.

just my 2c
