This is nothing to do, with the legal position. Portmanager just can't hand this situation; all it can do is work on the assumption that the functionality has moved elsewhere and remove the port to prevent conflicts. You could try using the -ip option, or alternately restore the original port contents, and do minimal maintainence on it yourself. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
