Dear porters,

A list by MAINTAINER is

Just a data point - this page works fine with firefox 3.6 from the ports
tree.

Hi, I see on
http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portoverview.py?category=security&portname=openssh-portable
that openssh-portable doesn't build anywhere, not just on my ia64 and sparc.
cc -O2 -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wuninitialized
-Wsign-compare -Wno-pointer-sign -Wformat-sec
I compiled and installed 3.6 in www/firefox3-devel and it crashed again.
This is the output near the end, I compiled it with debug info:
nsStringStats
=> mAllocCount: 26879
=> mReallocCount: 6803
=> mFreeCount: 16552 -- LEAKED 10327 !!!
=> mShareCount: 284

Just use USE_GNOME= gtk20 libxml2, rather than the LIB_DEPENDS line.

Obviously, I should have written the above line as:
${MKDIR} ${PREFIX}/etc/xdg/ggobi

I installed the add-ons you mentioned but all they did was prevent me from
using the flash plugin (although it didn't crash anymore). Flash is supposed
to be enabled, it says so in its plugins page but none of the flash sites
work, some cause Firefox to crash.
I am using Opera now instead. The Free

Ports has a predefined method of doing this: USE_GNOME= gtk20 libxml2

When an update to a port is committed, it is likely to contain
(a) lines like "Only in : "
or (b) patches that are created against empty files using the "-N"
option for diff.
Cannot "patch" honor these cases? As a port maintainer, I have been
caught quite a few times by committers
Thank you very much, b.f. and Eitan Adler, for your competent help.

Doug,
I was testing boost-1.41 against net-p2p/rblibtorrent before updating. The
pointyhat status for rblibtorrent on FreeBSD 7 and 8 is green. This may
indicate that the issue is a bug in GCC and should be fixed by adding

I was pointed to ports-mgmt/porttools by pgollucci@, that takes care of
listing additions & removals in the PR when you use the port submit command.
