I have been doing cvsup on my ports tree to get the latest port updates. The netpbm devel version is 10.31 dated 05.12.23, not really very new! They are up to 10.37.0 dated 06.12.31 on SourceForge. In version 10.34 a new command pamthreshold was added, and fixed through 10.36 FuzzyOcr needs pamthreshold in its latest version 3.5.1, which newer than mail/p5-FuzzyOcr-devel which is 3.4.2. It was a major rewrite, but easy to manually update since it's written in Perl. I want to request that p5-FuzzyOcr-devel be updated to 3.5.1 (fairly major Makefile redo for port), and that netpbm be updated to at least 10.36. This is a biggee for spamassassin users, the new version of FuzzyOcr is very well written and works very well.
