That is what I thought. I just wanted to be sure before I adjust some of the patchfiles and send off some diffs to the maintainer of the ldap port. As they stand right now, there is one very large patch file that is relative to WRKDIR and 11 patches relative to WRKDIR/DISTNAME. If I get a chance this weekend, I hope to modify the weird (relative to WRKDIR) patch to be the same as the others. Thanks for the clarification on this, (Satoshi too) Ian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
