-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- OK, one more thing. As far as I know, updating bsd.port.mk will require end users to do one of the following: * cvsup and install bsd.port.mk from src/share/mk * use cvsweb.cgi to download the correct revision of bsd.port.mk * grab either ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-stable/src/share/mk/bsd.port.mk OR ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-current/src/share/mk/bsd.port.mk depending Seems like the latter is probably easiest for most users. Can you think of any snafus or better alternatives before I write something up saying ``do this to stay in sync with the ports collection''?
