>Release:        FreeBSD 2.0-BUILT-19950603 i386
>Environment:

	vanilla 2.0.5R system.
	lynx ports dir (from ports-2.1) and lynx2-4-2.tar.Z original tarfile,
	gotten today (20Nov95) from ftp.freebsd.org

	

>Description:

	The FreeBSD patches fail to correct many irregularities in the
	libWWW Makefile's that BSD make can't grok.  This results in
	many complaints from make, when trying to build the port, which
	ultimately fails.

	

>How-To-Repeat:

	Just grab the lynx port dir and original tarfile from ftp.freebsd.org
	and try compiling it.

	

>Fix:

	Get the file
	ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/incoming/lynx.replacement.patch-aa.gz

	gunzip it, and rename it to patch-aa, and put it in place of
	/usr/ports/net/lynx/patches/patch-aa

	Then re-run make and enjoy.

	This should, perhaps, be put into the ports dir on the FTP sites.
