While I really appreciate how quickly a fix was made, let me sound like a broken record a bit and say that we should work with an "upstream first" mindset as much as possible. Both avilla and I (as well as others on the team) are also KDE committers, which means we can commit to any KDE git repository, as well as to KDE's SVN repository (which is where Kopete's code resides). I have just committed [1] a fix upstream that should work with both libungif/older giflib versions and giflib 4.2.0 and will now be part of kdenetwork 4.9.0 and 4.8.4 -- if we just kept our patch in ports and area51, other packagers would not be aware of the fix and would work on the same problem once they updated their giflib versions. BTW, GifError() only returns an int, so the current patch in area51/ports is not 100% equivalent to the previous call to PrintGifError. Since this is a patch for a corner case, I don't think we need to bump PORTREVISION again and make everyone rebuild kdenetwork, so I'm not changing the current patch we have applied. But guys, please try to fix upstream before adding patches, kthxbai [1] http://websvn.kde.org/?view=revision&revision=1298170 _______________________________________________ kde-freebsd mailing list kde-freebsd@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-freebsd See also http://freebsd.kde.org/ for latest information
