Or simply use any of the freely available, cleanly licensed and more functional alternatives, many of which are written by programmers posessing an at least marginal semblance of sanity: - wmii - dwm - xmonad - larswm - awesome (my personal favorite) They all have their cranky peculiarities, but at least the authors aren't balls-out insane, and don't habitually harass OS distributors with their paranoid ravings. There's no reason to use ion anymore, much less let an old version rot in the ports tree. If people still want to for some reason, they can just keep a copy of the old port or build it from scratch. _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
