Hello, First, do you have the latest ports tree? If not, it maybe a good idea to update your ports tree and verify that the bug is still there. Second, since it concerns the ports be sure to checkThe FreeBSD Porters Handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/ and especially Testing Your Port chapter: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/testing.html On 10/16/07, Aryeh M. Friedman <aryeh.friedman@gmail.com> wrote: > I found and fixed a bug in one of the ports how do I make a patch file > (I only changed one line in one file) I would copy the original unmodified file to a backup copy, fix the file and then diff the modified file and the backup copy. > and who do I send it to? You should submit a Problem Report as described here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/porting-submitting.html Every port has its maintainer and they are specified in the port's Makefile.
