There is no need to force hardship on our developers. It seems that you mix several problems in one. I repeat (already many times) that both new and old patch handle Index: equally. It was bug in CVS diff affects _both_ new and old patch which was masked by "fixing" old patch localy in FreeBSD which cause bugs with world-wide patches. Now old patch is "unfixed" back and CVS is fixed instead. It means that old and new patch handle Indexes equally (repeat one more). I wonder if anybody really read what I write? It seems any junk can be written in the middle of the message without a notice. There was different problems in new patch related to no backups and -p strip slashes vs. path componetns, both documented in patch(1). _Before_ importing of new patch I ask everybody about this problems and nobody seems to react which confirm that nobody read what I write. I don't plan to waste time for importing and then backing out. You should answer something before I plan to import. More practical reason is that -current is place for new soft integrating and patch integration is neccessary part so must happen sonner or later (I already write that and repeat now to increase probability that someone will read). Your bsd.port.mk system is not _golden_code_ remains untouched by any price, so you must think how to adopt and handle new changes, it is your task, not mine. -- Andrey A.
