Hi. It was a long time ago and I don't remember if was a discussion about .warning directive. As I can see only .error directive was documented in Porters' Handbook as a harmful. But I'd like remind .warning directive pollutes stderr and discouraged portupgrade which was designed to catch messages from stderr and rises errors. Now there are a few ports (ImageMagic and GhostScript*) where the directive was appeared. I think the ports should be fixed to use ECHO_MSG to display the warnings. Thanks. -- Dixi. Sem.
