Looks like a bug to me. The subversion build system is set up so that you can build with neon either in the subversion tree or out of it. As a result, it tries to use the libneon.la file, since neon normally installs it. I could hack around it, but it doesn't make much sense to me to patch one port (neon), changing what it installs, thus requiring us to patch still more ports (subversion, plus whatever else might depend on neon installing that file). To me anyway, it seems fairly reasonable for someone to assume the file will be there, since neon installs it by default anyway. Why not just avoid the mess entirely and install the file? -garrett -- garrett rooney Unix was not designed to stop you from rooneg@electricjellyfish.net doing stupid things, because that would http://electricjellyfish.net/ stop you from doing clever things.
