Hi--

I'm trying to figure out how to update the ports collection entry for 
mail/exmh2.  One of the other exmh developers recently added support 
for PGP 6.5, and I'm trying to figure out how to make all these things 
work together in the ports collection.

The problem I am seeing is that pgp2 and pgp6 both install their main 
binary as /usr/local/bin/pgp.  exmh does runtime checks to see which 
version(s) of PGP are installed on the localhost, unfortunately, just 
by checking the existance of a file won't really help us determine the 
difference between having pgp2 installed and pgp6 installed.

pgp5 had a workaround for this:  its main binary installs as 
/usr/local/bin/pgp5.  Installing PGP 6.5 this way is an easy way out for
me (and in fact, the person who added the PGP 6.5 support does this),
but I'm not sure it's really the right solution.

Anyone have any suggestions as to how to deal with this?

Bruce.
