(but, using 5.0-CURRENT ports tree)
>Description:
When you look at README.html in the root of the ports tree, you
can follow each links up to a single port directory. Then, there is
a link suggested to see the full port description as:
Please read the file "pkg/DESCR" for a longer description.
Unfortunatly, as i'm using the -CURRENT ports tree, this link is broken.
I am telling this because that, in native -RELEASE ports tree as in 3.4-R,
this thing works. As you changed the files location from pkg/file to
pkg-file, you didn't changed the url destination. So, we have a broken
link here. I think that it just applies to the -CURRENT ports tree.
>How-To-Repeat:
With your favority browser, in /usr/ports (or at the root point of your
ports tree), look at the file README.html. Then, follow the links with
the idea of going to a single port. Then, follow a route like:
archivers -> 9e-1.0
Then, follow the link on the line:
Please read the file "pkg/DESCR" for a longer description.
Broken link.
>Fix:
Fix all the README.html files in the single ports directories to make it
point to "pkg-descr".
