Vladimir and other folks,

I've just looked at the logs for my ports. It's worth to notice that
portlint gives just wrong results. For example, for devel/boost-jam it
reports the following:

FATAL: Makefile: PORTVERSION or DISTVERSION has to be there.

(reported at
http://kemia.me.tut.fi/~chu/FreeBSD.port_tests/devel/boost-jam/test.log)

However, if you cd to /usr/ports/devel/boost-jam and type "make -V
PORTVERSION", then make prints "1.41.0". The same with MAINTAINER and other
variables reported as missing.

So don't take the reports too seriously. It's just a reminder to
double-check, not the facts.

Alexander Churanov,
maintainer of devel/boost-*
