It would be nice to have a URL which explained the problem in more detail: 1. when the old layout changed to the new layout 2. information on the changes 3. general information on what needs to be done to change a package to the new layout. I eventually gave up and copied /usr/ports from my 4.1R cdrom to at least have a usable ports directory. I looked at variout make files, but don't understand freebsd enough to know really where to start. This extra information would be really handy. simon -- Simon J Mudd, Madrid SPAIN Tel: +34-91-408 4878 email: sjmudd@pobox.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
