I sam working to try getting a current flash working, and I found
something that seems screwy. I've had pr0blems with the way that ports
do/don't respect LOCALBASE/X11BASE so far, and while I guess I was
wrong, I think I would ask someone else to check this ... the
www/linux-firefox-devel (and probably the linux-firefox) ports sticks
its large selection of shared libs intoa subdir named firefox-devel, but
instead of this going into /usr/compat/linux/usr/lib like I was
expecting, its being stuck into /usr/local/lib. The files aren't bsd
llibs, they're SYSV libs, so i dono't think that the linux ldconfig
should go hunting over there.
I think it's installing in the wrong spot. So I can continue with my
work on the Adobe stuff, I'm going to fix my stuff here anyhow. Let me
know if I'm right, ok? I'd file the PR if you wanted, I just want
someone to verify this as wrong.
