He also discovered that the v451 patch had issues with the keyboard. After a little reading on my part, I found that in most cases the v451 patch was more suited for servers while v436 was best on clients with both being network compatible. Here is the question: how should the port's version information be configured to have v436 be the default with v451 (WITH_451PATCH) as an option? With PORTVERSION set back to 436 from 451, does PORTEPOCH need to be set to 1? I am uncertain since the port will support both versions. Would PORTREVISION=1 be better than using PORTEPOCH since if the user wanted to stay with v451, the install may be a little different anyway? Here is the latest port of linux-ut[1].
