The following reply was made to PR ports/93367; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Phil Oleson <oz@nixil.net> To: pfgshield-freebsd@yahoo.com Cc: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, giffunip@asme.org Subject: Re: ports/93367 : devel/libedit needs an update (almost complete patch) Date: Wed, 15 Feb 2006 01:03:28 -0700 <previous content removed for brevity of the PR> well, the base system excludes the readline support as well as the existing port. This is because the real readline is in the base system. So there is no need for a compatability layer. If there are license issues with cad/ngspice, then the authors of ngspice need to change the code to use libedit. Otherwise ngspice needs to depend on readline. I might find some time to adapt your patches to meet some of the criteria that I noted previously (since you've expressed disinterest in taking this on yourself ( no biggie.. It's just a time management thing) -Phil.
