There is a reason for that MAINTAINER line, > you know. :-) For simple changes such as this, we usually don't go thru the MAINTAINER; Especially for "style-police" matters (which I consider this change). For for simple ports (as opposed to more complex port Makefiles such as Mutt, ssh, etc.) Committers often feel it w/in their capability to make small changes. For instance, since I'm an official mirror site of ``tin'', I find out quicker than ache when the distfile has been updated. So I usually update the port for him. However as MAINTAINER, he has final say in build options, direction of the port, etc. However, if you want every change to go through you that is fine also. BTW, would you consider re-importing this into ports/security as I still think that is where 90% of the users would expect to find it. -- -- David (obrien@NUXI.ucdavis.edu -or- obrien@FreeBSD.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
