Ever since the USA lifted (or at least reduced) their export restrictions on crypto, the distinction between US and export versions of Netscape became meaningless.

The netscape-*.us ports are obsolete. > I just cvsuped my ports tree and /usr/ports/www/netscape47-communicator.us > only contains a README.html file (no Makefile, etc.). Actually it would have removed the directory completely, but CVSup doesn't know about README.html, since that file is not in the repository, and it won't touch files it doesn't know. > Is my only option to install the package? Use the port without the ".us" prefix. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.inka.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
