The suggested way I thought so, too, when I took a look at the port for the first time, but at this time that wasn't the case, because some more above he cp's PLIST.common to PLIST, which makes a _fresh_ copy of PLIST. > (according to http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/porting.html 4.4.13.4) would > be to edit ${TMPPLIST} in the post-install target. Nice. I have used dynamic PLIST's in some ports too and will soon switch then, I think ;-) It seems I have not seen this section in the porting.{sg,ht}ml when I checked the last time.
