But if he'd first made a commit to security/cyrus-sasl2 saying "be sure to include md5.h", and then a commit to comms/kermit saying "correct conflicting macro definition", and then updated openssl, there would be no complaints. Just playing devil's advocate here (note: dinoex, don't read anything into that ::P). This is the same problem we see every single slush. Can portmgr please produce an explicit set of rules for port slushes? I know that the automatic response is "no sweeping changes," but it's pretty apparent that that means different things to different people. I know that it's tricky to define, but doing so would save everybody grief in the long run. # Adam -- Adam Weinberger adamw@magnesium.net || adamw@FreeBSD.org adamw@vectors.cx || adamw@gnome.org http://www.vectors.cx
