I think that in general if a directory is used by a couple of more or less unrelated ports (as opposed to eg. parts of gnome that use their own port to handle shared dirs) it should be in mtree file. That's why I left fonts/local in proposed mtree. fonts/TTF is location where TrueType fonts from either of X11 distributions go and it seems that fonts/TrueType is where other ports put them (at least a quick grep through pkg-plist files shows that other ports don't install into fonts/TTF). Both are also in common directory for X11 fonts, so they would adhere to some imaginary vague definition of hier, probably :) Dejan PS.: If I may kidnap this thread for related question: From testing xorg upgrade with dirs migrated from mtree to pkg-plists on pointyhat-like tinderbox (taken from marcuscom) I get such errors: === Checking filesystem state list of files present before this port was installed but missing after it was deinstalled ./usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config missing ================================================================ Now the question is would this be ignored on pointyhat checks untill mtree is updated or do all the fixes be done at same time? (I know I asked before, but now I've actually seen what error this would seem to produce on pointyhat.)
