Hi Mam,
Mr. McVittie manually patched the ports Makefile and was able to update to
4.2.1. I was able to replicate his success following his steps below.
Chris, are you planning on creating a patch?
Regards,
Russ

Hi,
So I had a first hack at this...
Using the existing port
rm -rf files
edit Makefile
PORTVERSION= 4.2.1.91
WRKSRC= ${WRKDIR}/mono-4.2.1
make makesum
make install
make makeplist
make clean && make install
All seems to "just work." I'm suspicious that this is too easy?
```
root@bsd-1:/usr/ports/lang/mono # mono --version
Mono JIT compiler version 4.2.1 (Stable 4.2.1.91/8862921 Fri Nov 6 21:13:46
UTC 2015)

TLS: __thread

```
Is there anything else I should check?
Thanks,
Chris
