I see that the = full XFree86-4 port has=20 one maintainer while the individual XFree86-4-* ports are under another, = but is there any good reason that the all in one port is using 4.0.2 sources, while the = individual ports are using 4.0.1? I am using 4.0.2, and if I want to install any x application = (using XFREE86_VERSION=3D4) I am going to have to install the older stuff as that is what the = depends go on. Is anybody else having problems with this, or is 4.0.2 just not used?
