On the developers website there is a patch i want to apply

http://developer.berlios.de/patch/?func=detailpatch&patch_id=2283&group_id=2663


[ Patch #2283 ] Add a variable to run shutdown commands without root pass.

How can i get "make install" to apply this patch while compiling the port?


Hi Fbsd1,

Since you've already found a unified diff of the change that you want to
incorporate into the port, you can submit a PR (problem report) using
the form here: http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html.

Just follow the instructions on that page, and your patch will be
submitted to the PR system.  The port maintainer reviews your PR, makes
the necessary change and possibly updates the port's revision number.
You then use portupgrade or some other means to install the new version
of the port with the incorporated patch.

Hope that helps,
Greg
