No. Those directories are created by Apache, not Hypermail, and as a result Hypermail shouldn't have @dirrm lines for them. In fact, I'm not sure if Hypermail should be installing to share/apache/htdocs in the first place. I can see the benefit of doing so, but it causes inter-mingling of data which causes problems. (ie, what happens if you make custom mods to hypermail.html, and then deinstall Apache? Say goodbye to everything in share/apache, including Hypermail!) The better solution would be to install Hypermail's HTML and CGI scripts to share/hypermail. This way, data doesn't "cross-pollinate". If this route is chosen, a pkg-message file should be created informing users of where the files have been installed, and instruct users to copy them into their cgi-bin and content areas. -- Matt Emmerton To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
