Mmmmm, yeah
>Environment:
System: FreeBSD though.they.go 6.0-BETA4 FreeBSD 6.0-BETA4 #4: Fri Sep 9 00:07:43 IDT 2005 root@they.shall.be:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386
>Description:
The ports tree contains many tools with almost-similar names and no
helpful pkg-descr difference. The goal of pkg-descr would be to aid the
user in his choice of port version. Ergo, similar pkg-descr files are bad.
>How-To-Repeat:
Observe, for example, security/gpgme/pkg-descr and security/gpgme03/pkg-descr
and ponder which is the right one for you.
>Fix:
Add this to the automatic reviews. Auto-bug porters till blissful
feeling settles.
Depends on bash.
