>Description:
Status of Linux base seems to be wrong. We don't need linux_base-62
since linux_base7 should be renamed to linux_base and old linux_base
should be linux_base6 in future or must disappear.
Who wants linux_base-62? If someone needs linux_base based on 
RedHat 6.2,linux_base should REALLY be updated, and there's no
essential difference between linux_base and linux_base-62. 
I wish linux_base7 should be upper compatible with linux_base6 and 
linux_base? will desappear and only one linux_base should live.
Note, I mailed to maintener and he doesn't seems to approve it.

If it is possible,
1. delete linux_base-62 and replace linux_base with my updated ports.
2. linux_base-7 should be renamed to linux_base
3. linux_base-6 should be updated to be compatible with RH6(and before)

 PORTNAME=              linux_base

>Fix:
I updated linux_base based on RH6.2. Since this port affects
linux_base, I also updated linux_devtools. I tested these ports
and seems to work well with netscape, with flashplugin, realaudio 
plugin, acroread, xmoive, vmware2. For Alpha systems, I only tested these ports
normally install.
       I only tested how these ports work.
