* From: Ade Lovett <ade@lovett.com> * I've been beating my head against the wall over this one.. Please don't do that.... * Working on the (broken - distfiles survey) lang/scm port, the * distfiles are now utilise two different packaging methods * (a couple of .zip's and a .tar.gz) Write your own do-extract target. Or set EXTRACT_ONLY to one of them and extract the other manually in post-extract. * Similarly, there's a minor issue with graphics/wmicons and * x11-wm/windowmaker, where both require WindowMaker-extra-0.1. * * x11-wm/windowmaker uses the bzip2 version (since the the actual * windowmaker tarball is also bzip2'd), but graphics/wmicons uses * the gzip'd version (since all the other distfiles associated with * the port are also gzip'd). Change the windowmaker port to use the gzip'd version. Add a comment explaining why it's done that way so nobody will accidentally "fix" it.
