Oh, I don't use the port itself; but because of linprocfs my master_ports_blah_machine [1] was failing to fetch it and used to require manual intervation. I should have looked closer at what the port is / does. [1] - that's a machine that fetches the distfiles for i386 ports by parsing cvsup logs and it is MASTER_SITE for the rest, plus it builds the ports we use on the other machines customized to our needs. -- IOnut Unregistered ;) FreeBSD "user"
