 Yes, don't expect any help.

 And I wouldn't try Firefox - it's a bitch to build at the best of times,
 and it requires lots of dependencies. Better to stick to what works.

 xchm might do it. I am running one -current package, dovecot, because
 it has some features I really liked and I had faith in its stability.
 Otherwise, stick to -stable. And don't try -current if you're not
 willing to have some fun with glue after the thing falls apart yet
 again.

xchm on OpenBSD 3.8

2006-01-16 Thread edgar mortiz

why is it that on the OpenBSD 3.8 ports tree xchm isn't present? is
there a way for me to build xchm on
3.8 release ? instead of jumping into 3.8 -current?


any help would be gladly appreciated.

Because it wasn't added until after 3.8 was released.

Development takes place on -current, changes are only backported
in exceptional circumstances.

 3.8 release ?

You can probably build it yourself from the source distribution
without too much difficulty.
