Bug ID: 257140
Summary: mail/thunderbird and www/firefox install two
executables
Product: Ports & Packages
Version: Latest
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Many People
Priority: ---
Component: Individual Port(s)
Assignee: ge...@freebsd.org
Reporter: m...@freebsd.org

Flags: maintainer-feedback?(ge...@freebsd.org)
Both ports install a pair of identical executables:
${PREFIX}/lib/${port}/${port} and ${PREFIX}/lib/${port}/${port}-bin. For
example:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 532976 Jul 12 13:28 /opt/lib/firefox/firefox
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 532976 Jul 12 13:28 /opt/lib/firefox/firefox-bin
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 708872 Apr 18 22:47 /opt/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 708872 Apr 18 22:47
/opt/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird-bin
If one of them is not actually used, then it should not be installed at all. If
both are used (due to bugs in upstream scripts), then the two incarnations
ought to be made a hard link.
