(At least it seems like this has happened to me.) >How-To-Repeat: Install/upgrade both ports/packages and try out which emacs version is run by default. >Fix: As other ports that implement graceful coexistence of multiple versions of binaries, leaving selection of the system-wide default to the system administrator with symlinks. To aid this, bin/emacs20 and bin/emacs21 should be created to avoid breaking symlinks with minor version bumps. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: >System: FreeBSD xxx.cs.hut.fi 4.8-STABLE FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE #5: Wed Aug 13 15:34:53 EEST 2003 kirma@xxx.cs.hut.fi:/usr/src/sys/compile/XXX i386
