Within hours of a bug being reported, it is often fixed. Therefore, when you see a bug but only get around to reporting it a few days later, you should either * first check whether it's already been fixed * at least check whether it's already been reported (i.e. consult the freebsd-ports mailing list archives) Thanks, Kris --HcAYCG3uE/tztfnV Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFCQXMaWry0BWjoQKURAgX7AKDyPFQBD5s7/g+jR31hqt8pd/wHTgCglJ/i 6tLnXeV/5om7eCyE3FCqJjg= =SLmH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --HcAYCG3uE/tztfnV--
