There would be many, many, MANY more ports were this type of request honoured more often than it already is. I think that Mezz's proposed solution is the right solution in this situation. And FWIW, seeing as how the old fluxbox will never get another update, I really don't think that x11-wm/fluxbox should be kept in the tree any longer; I think that x11-wm/fluxbox-devel should overwrite x11-wm/fluxbox immediately. # Adam -- Adam Weinberger adamw@magnesium.net || adamw@FreeBSD.org adamw@vectors.cx || adamw@gnome.org http://www.vectors.cx
