Hi,
When I search a port with 'whereis', I get different results
on my 4.10 and 5.3 systems. For example
4.10 $ whereis lyx
/usr/ports/print/lyx /usr/ports/japanese/lyx
5.3 $ whereis lyx
/usr/ports/japanese/lyx
Why this difference?
On both systems /usr/ports/print/lyx exists.
Similar cases are there with other ports.
The result on 5.3 is rather confusing.
Rob.
