hi
SInce I am behind a modem, I downloaded my fav ports
(source files) and copied them to
/usr/ports/distfiles.

Some of the makefiles in the ports target a higer
version of the application than I have, and some the
lower version.
I made the changes in the makefile and adjusted the
MD5 values in the distinfo file, but make fails in the
patch section. Is there a way around this (i know it
is ugly) other than downloading from the net?

Thanks
Tk
