For all intents and purposes - licensing "feature" doesn't exist. The same issues you are raising have been raised before. Apparently the full licensing infrastructure is still lacking so it's in some kind of limbo. However, converting to stagedir is reasonably documented here: https://wiki.freebsd.org/ports/StageDir You don't have a choice with supporting stage -- new ports without stage aren't accepted. So that's why you have to bother. :) John _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
