Dare I ask why this was done as a port, rather than a PR being submitted that `gperf' in the base system should be up graded? If we keep having ports that duplicate much of the GNU tools we have in the base src tree, why don't we just remove them all from the base tree and do the package thing. -- -- David (obrien@NUXI.com) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
