I'm working on this - the port I submitted for 1.4.4 does NOT do pkg_add correctly due to some weird chars in the PLIST. I'm trying to fix this using 1.4.5.* but sorting through the patches and what they do is a pain. It appears the patches are submitted by just about anyone off the street and some of them do NOTHING right. I have 1.4.5.* sort of ready - I'm hoping to finish it sometime tonight maybe and send it in. > Please let me know any info that might be of help.

That's because it's a repository copy waiting for my updated version. :-) If you'd like the patch to fix your port to the 1.4.4 version let me know and I can send it to you.
