I haven't tried :-) The lang/perl5 port includes a utility 'use.perl', with which one can select which version of Perl to use, the one in the base-system, or the one from the port. Would something like that be faesible for net/bind9? Just a little script to make symlinks from /usr/local over the /usr originals from the base-system and some make.conf tunables so that a make world doesn't overwrite the lot again? (Getting BIND9 into the -STABLE basesystem would be nice too, but I guess it's not going to happen anytime soon? I seem to remember a discussion about this a while back) - Philip -- Philip Paeps Please don't CC me, I am philip@paeps.cx subscribed to the list.
