Proposal moving *spell dicts to ports/textproc/*spell/dicts
Hi, As I said some weeks ago I personally don't like much the use of ports/{french,chinese,whatever}/ directories. I saw that openbsd created sub directories in the aspell port. I think this is a really good idea, it's really easier to find. I don't think german/ispell french/aspell textproc/gu-aspell are really easy to find. I propose creating a ports/textproc/aspell/dicts and same for textproc/ispell and textproc/hunspell and moving every spellings ports to these directories. -- Demelier David ___ 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"

On the surface the idea sounds sensible. Maybe there are some issues relating to consistency across the whole ports tree in the way languages are handled. I see no solution being intrinsically better than any other but would tend to favour a consistent approach for all language. We already have one built in inconsistencyt -- i.e. english is handled different;ly than any other.

I don't know about hunspell and ispell, but aspell's dictionaries are maintained and updated independently, at different dates: its why these are separate ports. Regards, -- Th.

emacs and gconf troubles
Hello. I'm having a small, low priority, trouble; more an annoyance in fact. Since a while, if I start an X11 emacs from a terminal window, after I close emacs, the terminal window won't close with Ctrl-D; I have to close the terminal windows by hand. With the latest upgrade, I see the following warning at emacs startup: (emacs:2267): GLib-WARNING **: In call to g_spawn_sync() > exit status of a child process was requested but SIGCHLD > action was set to SIG_IGN and ECHILD was received by > waitpid(), so exit status can't be returned. This is a bug > in the program calling g_spawn_sync(); either don't request > the exit status, or don't set the SIGCHLD action.

I humbly suggest that the directory structure should be kept as simple as possible, hopefully only reflecting one abstraction vector (instead of several as at present: human language, programming language, framework, application domain, etc.). Then we probably need to develop more useful tools for managing the other abstraction vectors. 'make search', 'pkgsearch', etc. help, but perhaps some form of tagging might be more to the point, with guidelines for porters about what kinds of tags are expected. -- Sterling (Chip) Camden| sterl...@camdensoftware.com | 2048D/3A978E4F http://camdensoftware.com | http://chipstips.com| http://chipsquips.com pgpE18KA7b6N4.pgp Description: PGP signature

We are running out of diskspace on event the FTP master site - currently we are at ~1TB. The xz compression gives as significant space saving - so there is already a need. PS. anyone saying a 1 TB etc. disk is cheap will be ignored. -- Simon L. B.

kde 4.5.4
Yesterdays update to KDE 4.5.4 from 4.5.3 was without problems but when I start KDE (startx) it show splash screen than turn to black with mouse cursor which works, I heard sound when looks KDE start and that is it. I switch to console to close (ctrl-c) KDE. I try to start with a new user but it is the same problem. I also try to start KMail with ALT-F2 - kmail and when I look in console if it is running was there. Thanks in advance. . Thanks.
