So I guess a maintainer could also say, "Hey I fixed that >typo, but why is every 'pkg_add -r' user still reporting it to me?". Yeah, I now have a better understanding of the reasons behind this.

On my systems I compile all the ports I install, so I wasn't thinking about the builds for packages. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu
