When buying electronic music from Amazon, one is required to download a so-called .amz-file, which in essence is a download list. This file is necessary to conduct the download of purchased music, for which a propriatary program from Amazon is required. This program is available for Windows and Ubuntu Linux, but not for FreeBSD. net/clamz redresses that situation. However, before being able to download the .amz, one is required to install said propriatary program, which sets a cookie that allows to download amz-files. This is infeasible for users of FreeBSD. On the project site of net/clamz, an alternative to downloading said program is presented, which in essence is an alternative way to have aformentioned cookie set. Instructions on how to find the information on the project site should be presented by pkg-message, which I hereby include. Fix: Include pkg-message into port from attached patch. Attached patch was created from diff -r after `touch`ing /usr/ports/net/clamz/pkg-message Patch attached with submission follows:
