Hello, I have a question about handling of plist for a port of octave-forge (http://octave.sf.net). octave-forge is a extension to octave and includes e.g. signal processing. The problem is, that the package includes also bug-fixes and extents some given functions of generic octave and so it overrides some files of the original octave-port. So what I would like to know is if there is any way to handle this in the portstree or what would be the suggested way to go. Maybe make octave-forge an option of octave so there is just one pkg-plist to handle or I don't know. I have made a standalone port of octave-forge last year in june, but I can't release it before this is solved. Any suggestions? Thanks and greets, Kay
