OK, I'm a little out-of-date re: this stuff. :-) However, doing a subsequent scan of Makefiles turned up a large number of them that don't define any PLIST* variables. In other words, the ports tree is rather inconsistent in this area, it seems. The majority of ports still do have pkg-plist files, some have PLIST* variables defined, some don't. I don't know what would be the preferred resolution to all of this, but it *is* a little disturbing, don't you think? -- Conrad J. Sabatier <conrads@cox.net> -- "In Unix veritas"
