For a long time I'v been disapointed with features in ports system. No ports conflicts checking and other stuff. Last year I'v begun make some things - I'v found obsoleted bin/13649 and ports/13650 PRs that introduce a ports conflics checking, I'v asked in freebsd-ports and portmgr about this patches fortune. I'v got an answer from portmgr: "it's good features and could I adapt this patches for current bsd.port.mk and pkg_tools?" I'v spend a weekend for rewriting patches (many changes really was done) and send it as followup to the PRs. It was 1 December 2002. Till now there is no reactions. I'v wrote a few mails to portmgr but I'v just ignored. Now I decide to make a new my own PRs: bin/47145 and ports/47156. Is there a chance somebody look on it and commit it? I'v got more ideas about improvement of bsd.ports.mk. Is interesting my patches to team? May be I'v just spend a time for nothing? I'd like to hear some reaction somebody of team. Comments, advises or so. Who can I talk about bsd.ports.mk improvements? ---- Sem. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
