Is it possible to patch the source code in a port, and then make, make install again to get it to install the patched code? I tried applying the sendmail patch. I had previously installed 8.12.9 from ports.
This is basically what I did: cd /usr/ports/mail/sendmail-sasl/work/sendmail-8.9.12/sendmail patch < /path/to/patch -patch confirms that it went successfully. -I also edited version.c and changed the version number. cd ../../../ make PREFIX=/usr make PREFIX=/usr install But the patch doesn't seem to be taking effect. After restarting sendmail I: sendmail -bt -d0.11 < /dev/null and it tells me that it is still version 8.12.9. Am I doing something obviously wrong? The compilation seemed to run successfully. - Jamie "A friend is someone who lets you have total freedom to be yourself." _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
