Testing revealed a small problem I'd forgotten...during a release, we build the textproc/docproj port with JADETEX=NO, which eliminates the build of the print/jadetex port, as well as the (huge) print/teTeX port. If we want to build PDF documents, we'll have to set JADETEX=YES and consequently build three new ports at release time (one of them, teTeX, is pretty big). Just for posterity's sake, the additional ports that need to be built are: print/jadetex print/teTeX www/libwww We also need to edit /usr/local/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf in the chroot area to reflect the larger memory settings required. A simple sed script can handle this part. Not rocket science to do, but it'll make releases take longer (I haven't quantified this). I think it's worth doing anyways, but I thought I'd bring this up.
