That's something that I was going to work on, um, last year :-) We need both. Right now we have this hybrid which isn't a completely satisfactory solution for either one. This is historical; it kind of grew out of an initial short how-to document, then, as new things were stuffed into the ports infrastructure, there was no better place to document them. The "quick porting" text should turn into a "guide"; the "slow porting" text should become the reference. Of course, I say this, without the cycles to work on it. mcl _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
