4Hi,
Packages [1] for wine-fbsd64-1.5.11 have been uploaded to mediafire [2]. The
packages for FreeBSD 10 use the pkgng [3] format.
There are many reports that wine does not work with a clang compiled world
(help in fixing this problem is appreciated as it affects quite a few users).

Thanks to all for your input!
Editing /etc/periodic.rc seem to do the trick, but now I faced a different
problem which I've never seen before:
locate: integer out of +-MAXPATHLEN (1024): 1029
There are some directories that contains A LOT of small files I think. Need
to investigate.
Also thank
How can I find which directories break the MAXPATHLEN variable?
or can I somehow run the periodic script in verbose mode to see the output?

It's easy to do this with find and awk:
% find / -type d | awk 'length > LIMIT'
where LIMIT is the numerical value you want to be exceeded (in
your case, MAXPATHLEN).

thx, i hadn't seen the reply to my earlier message.
unfortunately, though i've got the png port installed w/

Can anyone shed light on why /etc/namedb is a symlink to /var/named/etc/namedb?
It seems to me this is general configuration stuff which should be in

things like logs, process ids of running processes, etc.
