X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 10 Oct 2007 06:41:30 -0000 I noticed the other that that in -STABLE that /usr/X11R6 was in front of /usr/local for libraries. This results in any port that uses a library from another port to look for /usr/X11R6 first, and then /usr/local. I don't know if this would cause any real problems other than confusion for people, but with the Xorg upgrade that installs into /usr/local, is this just an oversight? I'm not too familiar with the details of how FreeBSD loads libraries(although I have noticed at least one peculiarity), so I don't know if any serious issues can happen(I renamed X11R6 and things worked ok).
