I am in the final stages of updating the qpopper port from version 4.0
to 4.1. However, there are a number of patches that have been
incorporated into qpopper in the past that raise some questions.
qpopper alters the names of all the binaries from popper* to
qpopper*. I first thought that was done to avoid name conflicts with
the port popper. However, upon investigating, the popper port is an
older version of qpopper. Is there a reason to maintain two different
versions of qpopper? Could we just have the current version as popper
and use the original names for things? Is there a reason the qpopper
binary is stored in /usr/local/libexec where the default qpopper
installation is in /usr/local/sbin?
