A similar problem exists tracking a 4.x=20 RELEASE verses -STABLE. It would be far, far better mirror the package=20 building mechanism on bento (i.e., build packages for -STABLE and -CURRENT)= =2E =20 As it stands now, although I can override the warnings on pkg_add, the=20 installed OpenOffice is dead as a door nail on -CURRENT (it seems to be=20 looking for libraries that are no longer there). jmc P.S. Having the ability to haul down the packages conveniently and install= =20 them from the ports Makefile for OpenOffice would be a real plus. I also=20 applaud your efforts to de-couple some of the builds out. The build is way= =20 too monolithic (which means that the slightest failure in any one component= =20 and you have just wasted DAYS building the thing). Finally, a dedicated SD= K=20 port is needed so that plugins can be ported (I would like to port the=20 WordPerfect plugin, but there's currently no dependency to point to for the= =20 SDK). =2D----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBCdidvBSBfjNhsrIRAspaAJ9Wb4fc25MNqp8ed28d1z8H7gp1CACfZSmm yi3AovUSMCMT4tY+uIY7meQ=3D =3DfZas =2D----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
