The one that I find in = the base system seems to be a similar match to the one in = ports/devel/f2c. Is the one in the base system a pain to maintain or = otherwise holding back other work, or has it been made obsolete by = something in ports? Is removing it from the base system anything more = than just churn? With libobjc, the one in ports looks to indeed be a lot newer, and I'll = take it on faith that the gnustep ports automatically installs it, = overriding the base copy and making it essentially obsolete.
