I've just encountered this problem in my own port, and after fixing it I decided to do some research to be sure nobody made the same mistake as I did. The result are following: - 10 ports use DOS2UNIX=yes - 6 of them have binary files corrupted games/cleanq3 games/kiki net/hawknl net/hawknl-devel print/fpdf x11-toolkits/v - 2 of these 6 install these corrupted files print/fpdf games/kiki For the last two ports (one of which is mine) I've sent PR's. Other ports don't install corrupted files, but I think there's still problem - if one wants to get a file from a package (or look through documentation/samples, which are not always installed) - it's likely he'll run into currupt file, and such behaviour of ports collection surely is not expected. So either USE_DOS2UNIX should be used with care, or ports/92688 should be fully merged - that seem a good solution. -- Best regards, Dmitry mailto:amdmi3@mail.ru
