You can still submit this as a Port by adding your patch file as another DISTFILE hosted at your site. You'd then apply it via the post-extract target for example in your Makefile. There are several Ports that use this method to apply meta-patches that are too large for (what is now) files/patch-*. I don't know what you currently name the patch file, but you should use some variant of xmovie-freebsd-patch-${XMOVIEVERSION}.tar.gz so that it tracks a specific version of xmovie. If you only want your part to be the patching and not the maintaining, I'll do it if you like. Thanks for your efforts, btw. -- Jeremy --------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeremy Shaffner | This space for rent. jeremy@external.org | $ grep happiness life http://www.external.org/~jeremy/pgp.key | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
