( This would be a question for ports@ ) Ports do not conflict if having different PREFIX. You don't need (and don't want) to play with DISTNAME. You will want to pay attention to LOCALBASE also, for dependencies checking (PREFIX is where the ports installs, LOCALBASE is where it checks for dependencies; see Porters Handbook and bsd.ports.mk. for details). -- IOnut Unregistered ;) FreeBSD "user" _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
