vns@mindspring.com said: :- 4.0-Release was just testing release, if I don't miss something. And :- bridge options will be not supported on it. If at all possible, could you please make sure that 4.1-RELEASE stays supported? It is absolutely impossible (for operational reasons) for us to run -STABLE. Also, could you modify your port so that it issues an error message if it is installed on a version that it doesn't support. Your latest port merrily installs on 4.0-RELEASE, but it doesn't run on 4.0-RELEASE. It would also be good to change the DESCRIPTION file to mention OS version dependencies. A final suggestion: it would be great to maintain a version that *does* work on 4.0-RELEASE, even if it doesn't support bridging. I'm sure there are other sites like ours that can't jump on new FreeBSD releases immediately.
