Greetings...

I was upgrading kino tonight, and the upgrade process failed and tossed
this request at the tail of the error:

===>  Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.
Please report the problem to ports@FreeBSD.org [maintainer] and attach
the "/usr/ports/multimedia/kino/work/kino-1.3.4/config.log" including
the output of the failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good
idea to provide an overview of all packages installed on your system
(e.g. a /usr/sbin/pkg_info -Ea).

On January 2, the same thing happened and I did as requested...my email
can be seen in the January 2013 thread in the mailing lists and seems
unacknowledged. Looking at it, I saw (and remembered) send-pr as the
method to use.

My question: should a PR be opened on the "Script 'configure..."
message, such that "use send-pr" instead of "send it to ports@" is used?

I imagine this sort of problem is common.

Regards,

Joe Altman
