Well, I, as an Arla-hacker, try to make things build smoothly (or as smoothly as it can be done) on all supported platforms, including FreeBSD. But it doesn't hurt to have an even easier to install pkg/package in my view. But the real reason that I submitted upgrades to the FreeBSD port was that someone else had done the port some time ago and then it hadn't been kept up-to-date with either -current or newer Arla versions. This seemed a pity to me, so I submitted the patches to make it working again. /assar To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
