When using xfstt there is always a TCP port created to serve clients. When running xfstt only to serve the localhost you don't need (and probably don't want) this since it communicates perfectly over unix domain sockets. Fix: The path below adds an option --notcp. I haven't updated the manpage (only the --help output) but can do so if desired. It fits perfectly in x11-servers/Xfstt/files/patch-ae Note: I have sent this suggestion to sjc@debian.org who is listed as being responsible for xfstt in the distfile. I have also sent it to the maintainer but both didn't respond. Anyway, I have now made this PR since others might be interested in it or even someone likes to commit it to the ports tree. How-To-Repeat: run xfstt and then "netstat -a -f inet" and find the line with port 7101

Before contacting him, I mailed to the sjc@debian.org (Stephen Carpenter) who is named in the distfile. Unfortunately, he didn't reply as well. -Andre
