PLIST uses hardcoded FreeBSD version numbers. Fix: Make use of the wonderful PLIST_SUB widget to DTRT. Apply following patch. On deinstall, this still leaves the top level directory floating around, but that's more to do with the really *weird* hierarchy this port uses Turning it into something more BSD-friendly is likely to be a serious non-trivial job. cvs diff: Diffing . How-To-Repeat: On anything but an i386 3.1 system :) make install deinstall

Yes, it is. I've had patches like this sitting on my computer for over a month now. I'll commit this change, but the port must still stay broken: it sets ${PREFIX}. I tried to fix that half-heartedly but didn't really give it that much of an effort as I have no idea what this port even does :). -Chris -- cpiazza@home.net cpiazza@FreeBSD.org "It's better to be quotable than to be honest." --Tom Stoppard

The road to true enlightenment (in this case a fully functional port) is made up of many small changes. I'm just trying to clear up some of the more obvious errors, especially for those owned by ports@freebsd.org, before 3.3-RELEASE -aDe [off to rebuild a box after yet another seagate drive failure] -- Ade Lovett, Austin, TX.
