Huh, didn't know that. I thought it were only the tweaking of the four (?) variables you mention during installation. So your installation instructions are not complete ;-) Or would it perhaps be sufficient, to get it to run ? If the latter is the case, then it would be o.k. in my opineon, to do the modifications (that you already suggested to the user) automatically, but telling people during install: a) that some basic tuning has been done, so that jadetex is able to produce output for the FreeBSD document project b) that it might need some fine tuning of the other variables. All in all you are now more likely to get a running port. -- Andreas Klemm http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/~andreas http://www.freebsd.org/~fsmp/SMP/SMP.html powered by Symmetric MultiProcessor FreeBSD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
