The following reply was made to PR ports/150235; it has been noted by GNATS.

It's not at all clear to me why developers@ is cc'ed on these messages, but since we are ... Alex, Can you please explain why the change Garrett is suggesting will break anything? According to his PR all the headers that smartmontools needs are included in /usr/include. Is that not the case? What you've been told (that we prefer not to have userland tools include /usr/src directly) is accurate, so the burden of proof is on you to explain why it's necessary in this case. The fact that other ports may or may not do this is not relevant here. hth, Doug -- Improve the effectiveness of your Internet presence with a domain name makeover! http://SupersetSolutions.com/ Computers are useless.
