I suspect no-one would read it ( I wouldn't ) so here it is again: What do I do if I want to create a port with a name that already appears in the ports tree ? I can give the port a different name, but what should I do if both of them install binaries and man pages with the same names ? Specifically: I'm creating a port of mailfilter ( from Sourceforge ), but a mailfilter ( not the same one ) already exists in the ports tree. I decided to call my port filtermail, but it installs ${PREFIX}/bin/mailfilter: the other mailfilter port also installs a binary with this name. What should I do ?
