            Bug ID: 253882
           Summary: x11-wm/Motif
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: johndhend@icloud.com

I belive is ready to become a NEW port.

I ask for advice on "what would be best for the port team" or for them to a=
dd
it into upcoming release intitially so I can work from that point on
(responding to complaints before release).

The handbook asks I not "submitt a whole tarball as an svn .diff" to bugzil=
la
(and a diff cannot be made because x11-wm/Motif does not exist).

POINT:  it is not even thinkable as a .diff to redhat motif - this is for
freeBSD, not a linux port.  WHY: Motif (motif-2.5.0) is a pure freeBSD comp=
ile
(amd64/any) of ~ 2.2.3 with many things fixed still broken in
x11-toolkits/openmotif-2.3.8 by redhat (which is autoconf and doesn't compi=
le
correcly like it says it does, is controlled by redhat not freeBSD, breaks
imake other dire things, requires GNU new depends 2.5.0 has 0).  Made my PO=
INT:
way different.  The source, NEWS, pkg-descr is on github,  I won't jam you =
with
advertising here.

NEW PORT ERRATA:  I could but do not asks for gpg key and mentor rights to
alter the svn tree to add a node or for svn up submittal.  I don't want to =
be
more complicated than the ports team have request me to be.  I want to keep=
 it
simple.

This is my very first freebsd bugzilla posting.  I may not know all the rul=
es
yet.

Thanks sorry for boring you with details if I did!
