Hi Mam,

Mr. McVittie manually patched the ports Makefile and was able to update to
4.2.1.  I was able to replicate his success following his steps below.

Chris, are you planning on creating a patch?


Regards,

Russ

Hi,

So I had a first hack at this...

Using the existing port
rm -rf files
edit Makefile
    PORTVERSION= 4.2.1.91
    WRKSRC= ${WRKDIR}/mono-4.2.1
make makesum
make install
make makeplist
make clean && make install

All seems to "just work." I'm suspicious that this is too easy?

```
root@bsd-1:/usr/ports/lang/mono # mono --version
Mono JIT compiler version 4.2.1 (Stable 4.2.1.91/8862921 Fri Nov 6 21:13:46
UTC 2015)

```
Is there anything else I should check?

Thanks,
Chris
