This reminder is created automatically and does > not (yet) have a way to know if a PR fixing the problem has been > submitted. Which means, check the problem on your system, try to fix it there (if you have the time), and if you come up with a fix, send it as a patch in the PR using the "send-pr" command. Somebody in the FreeBSD team will pick it up and commit the fix. This usually works well. And is probably easier to manage than giving commit privileges to everybody who created a port. Good luck, Patrick. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
