However my gratitude is tempered by the fact that nowhere do you make it clear that the package is only for 4.10-RELEASE with X.Org - so having spent half a day downloading the package, it's useless to me. Please note, I'm not complaining about how the package is built, nor am I demanding that someone else build it for me - that's what the ports tree is for, after all. All I'm saying is, if the package has such a major requirement as replacing the windowing system with X.Org, please mention it up front. Thanks Jonathan
