System: FreeBSD empiric.icir.org 5.3-BETA7 FreeBSD 5.3-BETA7 #3: Tue Oct 5 20:46:12 PDT 2004 bms at empiric.icir.org:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/EMPIRIC i386
>Description:
The x11/dgs port is marked as IGNORE. The makefile contains
the following lines:
.if ${X_WINDOW_SYSTEM:L} != xfree86-3
IGNORE= "is included in XFree86 4.x and above"
.endif
This is in fact incorrect. XFree86 4.x and X.org 6.x only contain
the client side Display PostScript environment. They do *NOT*
contain the server components; this port does.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
The real fix is to patch the port such that only the server
components (i.e. dpsnx.agent and friends) are installed and
packaged when the client components are already installed in
the system.
