I just meant "You don't have to wait for me to fix ruby-qt2* stuff at all, just go ahead". I will mark them broken if I find that I can't get them fixed. (I hope not though) Still, I'd like you to put KDE2 packages in the 4.3-RELEASE. ;) The problem in 4.x or prior versions that libc and libc_r cannot be happily linked together is so annoying that we can't compile a decent binary if it needs to be linked with both a non-threaded shared library and a threaded shared library. And ruby-qt2 is the very case, which means, I can never make it really happy on the stock 4.x anyway. The combination of libc and libc_r might cause unexpected problems on a random occasion. Therefore, I really wish we could MFC the changes against libc_r on CURRENT in the near future even if it required libc's major to be bumped.. > This whole thing needs a bsd.port.mk key-into to keep things from > becoming insane.

I can just imagine.. We should finally realize that the K of KDE stands for "kinky". ;) -- / /__ __ Akinori.org / MUSHA.org / ) ) ) ) / FreeBSD.org / Ruby-lang.org Akinori MUSHA aka / (_ / ( (__( @ iDaemons.org / and.or.jp "We're only at home when we're on the run, on the wing, on the fly" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
