I put it as
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/incoming/simpack1.tar.gz
(simpack1, becouse old simpack is here. I propose to delete it.
New put, becouse many is changed, new files is added --- so,
new put in this case better then diff.
(Without tar feauture, becouse I need only in directory structure,
not in files)
End espessially few words about this port and tk:
1 application (sdsmt require tk, but only one, so, I
think, that simpack is not depend from tk.)
correct me, if I wrong.
And about general port structure:
may be we must have LINKS future: i.e. allow ports to
be not well-ordered by depends (in algebraick sense), and run
from crom stuff, which see: if new ports adeed ? --- may be linked
from existings ports and so on.
Examples, way we need in this:
1. TeX styles, (we must link it in texfmt directory, and,
in case teTeX rerun texhush)
2. .el files (when adding emacs/xemacs)
May be we must create some stuff, as windows registry, which
holds the name of actions and variable.
(And allow read envirowment variables to shell during boot)
P.S. I cc:-ed his to freebsd-ports, to stimulate discussion about
this.
