[portmgr CC'ed due to importancy of this port to the overall ports infrastructure] You did not address your plans on when/how this port will return to 1.5. We cannot put our head in the sand on this one (unlink libtool, this does included new applicable functionality). Please list the ports that broke so they may be addressed. Many of the ports that depend on automake probably really don't in truth need it. Any package that uses Makefile.am+automake is suppose to supply a built Makefile.in. Automake 1.5 is now needed for Binutils and GCC work, so are we either need an upgrade plan, or an "automake-current" port. Actually, automake should return to 1.5, and an automake14 port created (via repo copy). The ports that cannot handle 1.5 can use the outdated version. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
