not required by anything we ship. you can copy it over yourself if you're adding custom code that needs it.

#2 Updated by Kill Bill about 4 years ago

Well, it's unfortunately used in /usr/local/bin/ping_hosts.sh

https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/master/src/usr/local/bin/ping_hosts.sh#L113 uses /usr/bin/bc and bc is a driver for bc.

See: https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-src/blob/devel/usr.bin/bc/bc.y#L1192

So Jakub / Kill Bill / Doctor Notor is correct here, and this is a bug.

No idea why I can't take this out of "Duplicate or Not a bug" status. I've moved it to "Duplicate" (even though it isn't) because it is a bug.

Git blame says it was Renato in Dec 2013

https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/commit/67e861292a48f6d94f8136699f8b74f21429af32

Apparently nobody has noticed.

Just put both 'bc' and 'dc' on the build, and we'll be fine.
