I'm the maintainer of the palm/coldsync port. I'm about to release a new stable version and update the port, and have run across a problem. I'm hoping you might be able to suggest a solution. ColdSync includes a Perl package, which in turn has two man pages that go in section 3. Hence, ports/palm/coldsync/Makefile defines MAN3PREFIX= ${PREFIX}/lib/perl5/${PERL_VERSION} MAN3= ColdSync.3 \ ColdSync::SPC.3 The new version includes lots of section 3 man pages that aren't part of the Perl package. Thus I have a bunch of files that get installed in /usr/local/share/man/man3, and two that get installed in /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.00503/man/man3 . Is there a good way of dealing with this? Should I simply treat the Perl man pages as non-man files, add them to pkg-plist, and perhaps compress them manually in a post-install: target in the Makefile?
