>Environment:

A freebsd system 3 or higher with no compat22 libs installed (i.e. a
"pure elf installation")

>Description:

Here's a fix for a problem users have when installing the
www/linux-netscape47-commuinicator port. In contrary to it's FreeBSD
siblings, the linux netscape does not require X aout libs (compat22).

>How-To-Repeat:

With the above environment, running make install in
ports/www/linux-netscape47-communicator eventually runs the
ports/www/netscape4-communicator/pkg/REQ script, which checks for the
aout libs...

	

>Fix:

Here's a patch that adds an empty REQ shell script for
linux-communicator. It fixes the problem.

I've tested this for both linux-netscape and netscape47-communicator;
it works fine.
