This port is > scheduled for removal on April 16 if it is still broken at that time. > > Revision Changes Path > 1.4 +3 -0 ports/emulators/linux-ePSXe/Makefile > > <URL:http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/emulators/linux-ePSXe/Makefile.diff?&r1=1.3&r2=1.4&f=u>; From <URL:http://bento.freebsd.org/errorlogs/i386-4-latest/linux-epsxe-1.6.0.log>; it looks like the problem is that bento is doing a pkg_add of a linux-gtk package which has a dependency on linux_base 7.1. In my experience, the linux-gtk port works fine with either linux_base 7.1 or linux_base 8.0. I marked the linux_base 8.0 port RESTRICTED, so most users won't be installing it from a package. I think that really very few users would suffer from this problem. A solution would be to include the GTK+ library in the linux_base 7.1 port/package, like I did with linux_base 6.1. That was unpopular. If this port is removed, the problem will still remain. There are other ports, and unported software, that are affected. Maybe MANUAL_PACKAGE_BUILD would be a decent workaround. -- Trevor Johnson
