We made our lives much more difficult by putting GNOME 2.0 into portname2. Now, we have a bunch of portname2's, without portname ports. IMO we should be denoting the stable version of something by not qualifying it with a number. I mean, if a user or porter needs to depend upon gtkmm, they'll say, "I need gtkmm. I better use x11-toolkits/gtkmm." But if they have to have gtkmm-2.2 and nothing else, THEN they can qualify it with "I need x11-toolkits/gtkmm22." And for that matter, I *really* think it's time to move x11-toolkits/gtk--2 (which installs stuff named gtkmm) into x11-toolkits/gtkmm. # Adam -- Adam Weinberger adamw@magnesium.net || adamw@FreeBSD.org adamw@vectors.cx || adamw@gnome.org http://www.vectors.cx
