I was just concerned about having it in | the right place. No, to my knowledge, the content is right, but the procedure to resurrect a port can be a bit tedious, and thus people don't follow it and just add the port as if it was new. On the other hand running the addport script will do the right thing all the time. (And if there are cases where it does not work, which, to my knowledge, there are none, it can be fixed.) --=20 Mathieu Arnold
