i've learned now, RTFM alone can not make me clear of what send-pr is.

yes both of them appear in BUILDINSTFILES macro in Makefile at lib as you
can see.

yah.. mine is Mar 25 08:54.  i have 2.2.6 cd-rom as well, how can i update
from cd-rom ? or just ftp from primary site an over write the file  ?
i have searched through bsd.README but there is no hints on this case.

here is what i did on Makefile, in work/lyx-0.12.0/lib.
Oh, it is very big file.  i just show part of Makefile that i edited.
the rest of Makefile i do not touch.

BUILDINSTFILES = lyxrc.defaults doc/LaTeXConfig.lyx
#                 packages.lst
# BUILDINSTFILES = lyxrc.defaults doc/LaTeXConfig.lyx \
#                 textclass.lst packages.lst

the lines beginning with pound sign are original one except the first.

well, while waiting for reply, i shall try my luck in update bsd.port.mk
and make configure once again.


many thanks indeed.
