From: Jeroen Ruigrok/Asmodai To: FreeBSD Gnats Cc: asami@freebsd.org, grog@freebsd.org Subject: Re: ports/14987: graphics/xpm does not build a dynamic library, only a static one Date: Sat, 20 Nov 1999 14:46:17 +0100 Just to add my 0.02 Euros: x11-toolkits/Xaw3d is wedged in exactly the same way. And given this, a lot of other ports might be dead in a likewise way. They build on STABLE, but on CURRENT they all fail on the way that they won't create the shared libraries. Given that 4.0 RELEASE is fast approaching, the priority Greg assigned to it initially and the severity. I am going to follow Greg's lead about Imake being wedged, but I urge other porters to examine this issue as well. -- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven/Asmodai asmodai(at)wxs.nl The BSD Programmer's Documentation Project Network/Security Specialist BSD: Technical excellence at its best Learn e-mail netiquette: http://www.lemis.com/email.html Crucify me with Isolation...
