Sure, I'm just worry about people who can read some sort or article about spamassassin and FreeBSD ( cd /usr/ports/mail/no-more-here && try another disto ) But I'm not ready to say more in support of this observation :-) > > I do agree with this change and wish we did similar on all other leaf > application ports. p5-* py-* rubygem-* to me mean very specifically that > they are libraries/dependencies/plugins/modules.

Well, you can use SA libraries actually. At least now i can quick find something from CPAN since i know how origin formed. With your solution I need mapping. Sure pkg have answers for all my questions, but people still using ports, grepping pkg-plist's not so fun. > > If this port includes both it should be split up into a library and the > leaf application.
