Oldroyd from comment #12) > This port has both a command line and an X11 version. This does not call for flavors. Simply install both executables/scripts alongside, from one single package. > It also overloads do-fetch to pull the files directly from a subversion > server rather than use the 1970's technology of tarballs. Wrong. Pulling the code from the VCS is not the right way to distribute software. From time to time, good developer releases tarballs because downstream package maintainers in various GNU/Linux and *BSD distributions prefer to work with more firmly defined and stable code references. > In the meantime, this do-fetch code works fine. It might work, but you should really talk upstream into releasing normal tarballs. If they don't care or see the need for doing this, then perhaps = this software should not be ported and packaged in the first place. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
