Combining multiple programs in single port
in [Ports]

From: Jeroen Schot on 16 Feb 2010 10:33 Hello all, I want to provide a port for a set of small utilities[1], all in the same scope and from the same upstream, to FreeBSD. Since all are very small (around 100 line of C), making seven separate ports seems a bit overkill. What is standard procedure for this? Are there any existing ports doing something similar?

You are correct. I should have mentioned I was looking at the subset lsw, slock, sselp, swarp and wmname.

Given that these are distinctly different tools, and seem to have their own individual sources, different ports would be the way to go. hth, Doug -- ... and that's just a little bit of history repeating. -- Propellerheads Improve the effectiveness of your Internet presence with a domain name makeover! http://SupersetSolutions.com/ _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports(a)freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscribe(a)freebsd.org"

If these are package together upstream, does a meta-package/-port make sense?
