The following reply was made to PR ports/7382; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Matthew N. Dodd" <winter@jurai.net> To: Adrian Penisoara <ady@freebsd.ady.ro> Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Subject: Re: ports/7382: Pine4 does not co-exist with older installed version of pine. Date: Sun, 16 Aug 1998 06:04:48 -0400 (EDT) I munged the pine4 install to install things as pine4, not pine (and pico4, etc). I can still run pine3 against my pine4'ed config.
