I vaguely recall someone saying something about COMMENT fields changing, but it was not clear to me exactly what a) was/is going on and b) is it consequential for currently installed ports (in general I mean, I realise ports are updated quite often anyway). -- Regards Cliff Sarginson The Netherlands [ This mail has been checked as virus-free ] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
