I sent this message yesterday with a ridiculous subject, unintentionally. I
suspect no-one would read it ( I wouldn't ) so here it is again:
What do I do if I want to create a port with a name that already
appears in the ports tree ? I can give the port a different name, but
what should I do if both of them install binaries and man pages with
the same names ?
Specifically: I'm creating a port of mailfilter ( from Sourceforge ),
but a mailfilter ( not the same one ) already exists in the ports
tree. I decided to call my port filtermail, but it installs
${PREFIX}/bin/mailfilter: the other mailfilter port also installs a
binary with this name.
What should I do ?
Many thanks in advance,
- Harry
