abiword-plugins.....slave on editors/AbiWord2.

[Jeremy Messenger]

Hello,

Yesterday, I have started work more on it and I gave up on the slave  
method. Because, it becomes pain in ass, hard to read and messy that I  
don't like how I have done with it. The problem is that abiword have multi  
of configure and Makefile, which made the slave port harder to write  
(multi-WRKSRC) and will turn the main port into messy for like example  
that they can't share the same port/files/patch-* and etc.

So far from what I can see is that... I only can do it by create a  
seperate port without create a slave on editors/AbiWord2 and have  
'MD5_FILE=${.CURDIR}/../AbiWord2' in abiword-plugins to share the same  
distinfo.

If anyone still want to give slave method a shot w/ your skill logical,  
just let me know and do it. If nobody want to work, then I will start work  
on non-slave abiword-plugins port. This method, you will have to update  
abiword-plugins at the same when editors/AbiWord2 update.

Cheers,
Mezz
