Thanks Alexey david =2D-----------------------------------\End of extract _________________________________________ See also: Extract from posting by Jerry _________________________________________________________ A few months ago, after upgrading to version 8/amd64 and installing OpenSSL from ports, I had several ports bomb out when I attempted to build them. I filed PR's against them and contacted the maintainers. It appeared that the majority of these port maintainers were not even aware that their port would not build in the presents of OpenSSL when it was installed via the ports tree. In any case, I was able to get them to fix their ports to build correctly. What amazed me is that this is such a common occurrence that it should have been contemplated when the port was released. Perhaps the Porters Handbook should list ports that have a corresponding base system counterpart; thereby, alerting the maintainer that he/she should test against both versions to insure full compatibility. ________________________________________ Eceryone seems to be saying "hey do not bother me about this -- it must be= =20 something crazy about David's system" when everyone knows that ports need t= o=20 be built to take account of openssl from ports!
