I don't like this option for two reasons: 1. changes would also have to be made to BSD.x11.dist to cover those ports that have locale files and use USE_X_PREFIX 2. there doesn't appear to be a canonical list of subdirectories below share/locale -- certainly there are massive discrepancies between what some ports write, and the existing locale definitions in /etc/mtree/BSD.usr.dist -- so keeping things well and truly in sync is likely to be a non-trivial matter. -aDe -- Ade Lovett, Austin, TX.
