--hswr2nlkza6kbeck Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Hi all, I would like to propose a change in the localbase hier for ports I think we should add /usr/local/share/man in the manpath along with at first and maybe instead of in long term. The reason is: - /usr/local/share/man seems more consistent to me with base which have: /usr/share/man - It will remove lots of patches from the ports tree where were we need to patch upstream build system to install in a non usual path. My proposal is to add to the manpath /usr/local/share/man in default man(1) command in FreeBSD 12 (MFCed to 11-STABLE) and either provide an errata for 11.0/10.3 or a /usr/local/etc/man.d/something.conf via a port or something like that for those two, what do you think? For the same reason I would like to allow porters to stop patching (with pathfix or anything else) the path for pkgconfig files and allow /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig along with the current /usr/local/libdata/pkgconfig:/usr/libdata/pkgconfig Which will also remove tons of hacks from the ports tree. What do you think?
