No matter what terminal I use, or what size, it always fails with: Dialog Error, try to resize your terminal to at least 80x24. Fix: Turns out this is a fixed message for any Exit status of 255 (-1) from dialog, which is the Exit status for any errors occuring inside dialog or dialog is exited by pressing the ESC key. After a deeper investigation, the problem is due to ports that use quotation marks in the package comment. Ugly kluge below is what I did to make it work for me. I have converted all my FreeBSD systems to pkgng, so don't know if the non-pkgng way is right.

Thanks for bringing the problem to my attention. I was aware of the = described deficiency in the quote handling, however, on my test system = with FreeBSD 10 everything worked also with e.g. php55-extensions (A = =93meta-port=94 to install PHP extensions), despite the quotes in the = description. I included a modified version of the proposed patch, please try the new = version of the script at = http://alex.wittig.name/pkg_rmleaves/pkg_rmleaves-20140222.tar.gz If it works for you, I=92ll submit an update to the port.=
