>Release: FreeBSD 2.2.5-STABLE i386
>Environment:
FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE as of 5 Nov 1997
>Description:
xemacs port installs /usr/local/lib/xemacs/lock world-writable.
This is a religious affront. The correct place (after discussion
in -ports) is /var/run .
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/ports/editors/xemacs ; make install
>Fix:
Patching the port Makefile and pkg/PLIST as follows will have
xemacs use /var/run/xemacs/lock instead.
