In FreeBSD ports tree, we should have vanilla OOo as far as possible. patches must be minimal. this is my policy. http://porting.openoffice.org/freebsd/ http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/editors/openoffice.org-2.0-devel/ http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/editors/openoffice.org-2.0/ As you can see - we use epm to pack internally, but in the port skeleton, we extract files from the packages and repack. I also committed ooo-build, http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/editors/ooo-build/ which is slightly(!?) modified version of OOo. thanks, -- NAKATA, Maho ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
