Plus a fix dated just today (27jul01). I cvsup's my ports' tree and retrieved the newest fixed version. The new version builds without any serious err, but fails to install in the languages */*.po directory. I spent a few minutes trying to hack out the internationalization stuff. Failed; then send this note. (Only I flubbed and missent to -stable rather than -security.) gary -- Gary D.
