They may need to test USA_RESIDENT or force the user to manually define some variable, depending on what's in the patches (do they contain any crypto code themselves?), etc. The simplest, least automatic way is probably # Define USE_SSL if you have SSLeay installed and want to use the # patches that let lynx read shttp: urls. .if defined(LYNX_USE_SSL) PATCHFILES= whatever .endif > > Are future versions of lynx expected to ship with SSL default? > > No. It would be nice to have it as an option in the port, then. If you do this, you need to talk to the MAINTAINER (ache@FreeBSD.ORG, I believe). If you don't, then there's no reason to talk to him. :) -- This .sig is not innovative, witty, or profund.
