Both ports install a similar file tree under PREFIX and the only difference was the installation of one executable in each case: art for artemis and act for, well act. Moreover both packages, as distributed by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, are identical (ie. artemis and act are distributed in a single tarball). MD5 (artemis_compiled_v6.tar.gz) = 5ebd3db7edbb74eab5a84df9c693d4e1 SIZE (artemis_compiled_v6.tar.gz) = 3947732 MD5 (act_compiled_v3.tar.gz) = 5ebd3db7edbb74eab5a84df9c693d4e1 SIZE (act_compiled_v3.tar.gz) = 3947732 Thus, it is not necessary anymore to have users download identical distfiles under different names and to have two separate ports installing a similar file tree under different names (PREFIX/artemis-${PORTVERSION} and PREFIX/act-${PORTVERSION}) The act executable is now installed by the artemis port (submitted in a companion PR) Please note that I have already tried to contact the maintainer, but I'm getting bounces with the address published in the Makefile (chuynh@biolateral.com.au). I'm sending a copy to this address anyway. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
