Not true. There are a lot of linux- ports which are neither (see games/ for example). And I strongly believe that linux ports should be clearly named as such in all cases. > Other linux applications have been used as is. This is also impractical, that at any time there may appear a native FreeBSD counterpart for any linux port, which will require port rename. This should be avoided. -- Dmitry Marakasov . 55B5 0596 FF1E 8D84 5F56 9510 D35A 80DD F9D2 F77D amdmi3@amdmi3.ru ..: jabber: amdmi3@jabber.ru http://amdmi3.ru
