            Bug ID: 194814
           Summary: bsd-sort (textproc/bsdsort) gives error on
                    install/reinstall
           Product: Ports Tree
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: Needs Triage
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: lidl at pix.net

I noticed when adding this port to my builds recently, that the
post-install rules throw an error.  For example, if I just have
portmaster rebuild the port, like this:

# portmaster bsd-sort

===>>> Currently installed version: bsd-sort-20120716
===>>> Port directory: /usr/ports/textproc/bsdsort

[...]

It's the warning about "ln: /usr/local/bin/bsdsort: File exists" and
"ln: /usr/local/bin/gnusort: File exists" that concern me.

The same errors occur when I manually delete the package first, and
do a fresh install.

Thanks for your attention.
