I have submitted a patch to add a port: biology/bcftools. https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=199747 The port is dual licensed (MIT/GPL); however, If it is compiled with option GPL, then some features are enabled with require it to be licensed under GPL. I've solved this by choosing to change the license if GPL is enabled: LICENSE= MIT [snip...] .if ${PORT_OPTIONS:MGPL} MAKE_ENV+= USE_GPL=1 LICENSE= GPLv3 .endif However, I am not sure if this is the accepted way to specify the license in this case. Does anyone have any other opinion? -- Reed A.
