Please note that the /usr/local/bin was added for entirely different purpose - it is necessary in order to find bzip2 command when we using tbz2 packages.In my view addition of /usr/X11R6/bin is superfluous and would only promote bad poring practices. In fact, it should be relatively easy to find and fix all path-broken ports by greeping PLISTS in ports collection. -Maxim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
