I explicitly preapprove the addition of whatever CONFLICTS statement to emulators/wine will be appropriate by whoever is going to commit that new port of yours. (I won't be able to test this on amd64, but I am hopeful some other committer will grab it. If not, nudge them at emulators@FreeBSD.org or ports@FreeBSD.org. ;-) Thank you very much for your perseverence on this matter, David! I do believe it made the result all the better. Gerald
