>Description:
When reading the README.html file included with every port, there is
always a line saying "Please read the file pkg/DESCR for a longer
description", where the pkg/DESCR part is a link to the description
file. However, these description files have been renamed (some time
ago?) from <port_dir>/pkg/DESCR to <port_dir>/pkg-descr, without
updating the README.html file. So both the link's destination and
the text needs to be updated.
>How-To-Repeat:
Read any README.html file in any port, and choose the description
link. I couldn't find a port which didn't have this problem.
>Fix:
Change all pkg/DESCR links in all README.html files to pkg-descr. The
following patch should work for all of them, if applied with enough
fuzz. :)
