Anyone want to pick it up? Actually, with some help from some other folks, I have libh compiling. Unfortunately right now what happens when you run the disk partition editor (only test script I have atm) tclsh gives a Bus error and core dumps. *sigh* However, I have it stuck in a CVS repo that Jordan wants to move to a *.freebsd.org machine where I'll probably setup pserver or some such to allow people to work on it and get it into a good working state before importing it into the tree. > @ Find a replacement for myself so I can retire (status: none) > > Any takers? ;) /me hides in the corner > Satoshi -- John Baldwin -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ PGP Key: http://www.cslab.vt.edu/~jobaldwi/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
