Suppose there were a port, call it ports/misc/46upgrade, which installed jmallett's sed, either as "jsed" or as just plain "sed" (in the latter case, it would /usr/bin/sed aside on installation, and back in place on deinstallation). Suppose the jsed port bumped /var/db/port.mkversion and bsd.port.mk checked for this ("your system is too old to use this bsd.port.mk") Then the macro for patching in situ could always use jmallett's sed, never perl. It would behave consistently across different versions of FreeBSD, so it would be easier to test and debug. -- Trevor Johnson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
