I casually looked into updating graphviz in mports today. The current
version is having some problems on magus, and we might as well go to a
newer version. However, recent versions (at least since 2.18) have a
very annoying configure script. It tests for "working lineno" which
bash, zsh, and netbsd's sh have. Our sh (ash) does not do several
things that configure expects now. (recent autotools generate this)
While this is just one port, I think we'll get into trouble here.
I've updated our sh in CURRENT and would appreciate testing. I think
we should commit this before 0.2-RELEASE to save us some headaches.
Here's the error on the old port: http://www.midnightbsd.org/magus/ports/167378
Also, I think we need to look at what is needed to get WINE and
Firefox updated in ports. (1.0 and 3.0 respectively) It would have
to be native firefox and I'm thinking a new port is in order.
(unbranded at that) I think WINE just needs a few patches to get
working (in src)
