The version in ports (1.43) is from March 2002, and the newest version (1.60) is from August 2003. Its not just as simple as changing the version number in the makefile, because at least one of the patches that are applied doesn't apply to the new version. I'm sending this here since the port doesn't have a maintainer. I'm new to the FreeBSD port system (but not to patching and Makefiles iin general) so it would probably be best if someone else took care of this, however, if no one is willing to I'll go read up on the port system and fix it myself, and submit the changes here. Please CC any replies you send to the list to me, since I'm not subscribed. -- Andreas Eriksson (TPC)
