There are POLA violations whatever is done: If X11R6 references are removed then anyone who hasn't upgraded to xorg 7.2 will lose any X-related startup/libs/manpages/... If you upgrade to xorg 7.2 but don't cleanup the /etc files then rc.d and periodic scripts are processe twice. (I was getting warned about ports with security problems twice). Possibly mergebase.sh needs to do more fixup itself or include a bigger warning. -- Peter Jeremy
