MASTER_SITES= ftp://ftp.fvwm.org/pub/fvwm/version-2/ isn't valid now. Now on github: https://github.com/fvwmorg/fvwm/releases How is backporting done correctly in a case like this? I assume in order to add it to base? Or is that not possible? Seems like a good question maybe for other base software too. Is there already a thread talking about this? Thanks, Chris Bennett
