It can be done simpler than that. Just turn archivers/bzip2 into a stub port if the system already has shared library and executable installed in the /usr/bin /usr/lib, i.e. teach it to not build anything in this case, but just install appropriate symlinks. We have already too many OSVERSION dependend hacks in bsd.port.mk, so it would be nice to avoid another one. -Maxim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
