AFAIK that's already in the tree. The framework tries to extrapolate CPE information from PORTNAME and other variables. Unluckily most of the time it is actually impossible to get correct information and some other variables with the correct details, which are not necessarily logical or in any way connected with the information already present) need to be added by hand after manual discovery. -- Guido Falsi <madpilot@FreeBSD.org>
