I've been working on a number of ports recently and have noticed a
couple of small spelling errors:
1. in the handbook (in the "Making a port yourself" section) it reads:
As mentioned above, the default target to call when a dependency
is required is DEPENDS_TARGET. It defaults to install. This is a
user variable; is is never defined in a port's Makefile. If your
port needs a special way to handle a dependency, use the :target
part of the *_DEPENDS variables instead of redefining
DEPENDS_TARGET.
obviously, it should read "it is never defined..."
^^
2. the other is in a port itself I was using for reference:
/usr/ports/databases/mysql322-server; the Makefile reads:
@${ECHO} "Sorry, native FreeBSD threads (libc_r) in 2.2-branch"
@${ECHO} "are still to buggy to use with mysql."
@${ECHO} "Using mit-pthreads."
presumable it should read "still too buggy..."
^^^
Don't mean to be a pest, just thought someone might want to help us
FreeBSD'ers look a little more intelligent. ;)
