The NetBSD Foundation, Inc.
>Environment:
System: NetBSD big-apple.aprisoft.de 9.99.97 NetBSD 9.99.97 (POWERMAC_G5.MP) #51: Tue Jun 7 18:47:12 CEST 2022 martin%seven-days-to-the-wolves.aprisoft.de@localhost:/work/src/sys/arch/macppc/compile/POWERMAC_G5.MP macppc
Architecture: powerpc
Machine: macppc
>Description:

The base set includes /usr/bin/cpp because it also includes /usr/bin/calendar
and that runs cpp to preprocess calendar files.

However, if you install a minimalistic mail server with only the base set,
neither calendar nor cpp will work, as cpp always execs cc1, which is not
available in this setup.

>How-To-Repeat:
s/a

>Fix:
n/a
