Hi ! I wanted to make a port of the TeX typesetting frontend Lyx. It relies on the xforms package. It doesn't recognize that xforms is installed on my system, because it's installed under a different name libxforms.a. The standard name for this lib seems to be libforms.a. When browsing through the patches of the port I saw, that you changed the name from libforms.a to libxforms.a. I think this namechange should be removed / reversed ... Other packages that rely on a libforms library will definitively fail for the same reason ! Please change that or give me a good reason for changing the name.
