If I understand your question correctly, you or somebody else has submitted a bug that can only (or almost only) be fixed by the upstream vendor. My suggestion would be to: a) add a comment to the bug explaining that it has to be fixed upstream; b) post a message here on the ports mailing list, with a link to the bug report, asking that a committer take appropriate action, such as closing the bug (or suspending it, if such a thing exists). On the upside, your message here will probably already be read by a committer who knows what to do :-) Hope this helps, AvW --=20 I'm not completely useless, I can be used as a bad example. --1yeeQ81UyVL57Vl7 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJWJABGAAoJEAfP7gJTaCe8mjUP/1o3l+mxdQzjuuwiQJ6ylNKD /ntwleBoyjGA3Iioyd5ItZYcpkIgl8PVELQT4IWYmzF8SXA79nTr/oQSJHXMGhsu lZgXOJtyrnaVr/HBJO/83OME8V2telpuXz7rtSDiak0sK+1LGAQf2+L5wy8OJBIX piLDX35HPIIRy3azlm8Uz6Kgo1rTpgm/RYN96jMmB5/xAkfoJngRcn0CT2Cigmq/ YOFcHSBqtRRAGbj9hLdMT0pYgj119oM1YlbZy7k6HYk2Jnrt+dXf3h9ikPsZqXab IkkzNqbOZpNmOSWOCB/4FM1f/9q5uNmL2XS/VxszuXn7KZc1MTyj8b21uD/S7N+D UHBtUOLfO8n+mSyBRFSZ5HnzETQTkLpJ9osY93fZ+7BHnzlv7QbU4Z0jF4eXe8YZ oQ2Ao2z/DythYD14F3ysMr5ZfW/I7TUYl+THwIdoOGZZ53uWc/Ry3Iyltjpk2jjB PSKieVvI2QJVYHzALftOx+u/NmHRmHlyhXTTAeVaTmwwxxpIesXUYLGdMwCXOjDG Fy5W0reG90kVtBqVtIwZenU0AuVG9bEXJQmuZuie8lTu/vKbAICjH1eilvwY6hIZ HSPjk8d52YzWG0qiwypVp4yOcvsUwX8ax10bsl6GiOnWiPM4LWhU+XxLqBXhcFlO oZ9/2SwvV21fi+y4MYBU =BUOX -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --1yeeQ81UyVL57Vl7--
