These ports have changed their names (to be correct, their distfilenames have changed) and they are seperated by an - instead of an _ . So I have some options/ideas how to handle this and I would like to know which is the correct way before filling the pr for these ports: 1. let the portnames as they are and just define different distfiles. This would look like the following: PORTNAME= lineak_xosdplugin DISTNAMES= lineak-xosdplugin.tar.gz I think this is the most ugly option I can use. 2. Rename ports just in Makefiles (set variable PORTNAME), but I don't think it is really allowed to define PORTNAME other than the ports subdir in the portstree, am I right? 3. repocopy the three ports, so subdir and PORTNAME are changed. Another question for this one would be if I have to rename the subdir before filling the pr or is it handled in cvs? So which of these should I use, or is there another suggestion. Thanks for answers and help. Greets, Kay
