If I understand it correctly, it is a replacement for linux_base, right? In that case, we should make a tawanese linux_base. In the handbook you'll find what kind of name scheme we're using for that, IIRC it would be something like tw-linux_base. You might want to look it up though, as I'm not at all sure. Maybe someone on the list can be more precise on this... -- Marcel Moolenaar mail: marcel@cup.hp.com / marcel@FreeBSD.org tel: (408) 447-4222 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
