If not, it maybe a good idea to update your ports tree and verify that the bug is still there. Second, since it concerns the ports be sure to checkThe FreeBSD Porters Handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/ and especially Testing Your Port chapter: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/testing.html On 10/16/07, Aryeh M.

You should submit a Problem Report as described here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/porting-submitting.html Every port has its maintainer and they are specified in the port's Makefile.
