Tim,

Here's a start. I'll leave it as an exercise for you to fix the rest
of the bits; I at least got you past the fun sites change in the
extract part, but the path for ${_DB_D} with what's setup in the
Makefile differs from reality (the current path is:
${SOURCEFORGE_SITE}/project/dixit/dixit_qdb/dixit.qdb.tar.bz2 , not
${SOURCEFORGE_SITE}/project/dixit/dixit/10.4/dixit.qdb.tar.bz2 ); you
probably don't want to pull the potentially out-of-sync zip file from
ftp*.freebsd.org , especially because we can decompress a tarball
natively without installing archivers/unzip .

I've trimmed out a lot of the fud, but you'll probably have to do some
hacking to get the project to work with QT3 or QT4 (hopefully the
latter).

The porter's handbook [1] is your guide as well as make(1) [2].

After that, run `make makesum all install ' . Submit a PR with the
diffs for all of the files if it works to your liking.

Good luck,
-Garrett
