[Xastir-Dev] Beta FreeBSD port.

[Carl Makin]

I've created a FreeBSD port based off the April 15, 2003 snapshot on 
Sourceforge.

It installs ImageMagick and Shapelib out of a reasonably current ports 
tree automatically (they are already in FreeBSD ports) so it ends up 
being reasonably full featured, but you will need to either already 
have them installed, or a ports collection that contains them.

Basically you download and untar the port, cd into the directory and 
type "make install" and step back.  When finished it should have it all 
installed.  You should need to have NONE of the prerequisites installed 
first as it should compile them from ports, however you do need a fully 
populated /usr/ports tree.

It's available at;

http://www.stagecraft.cx/software/xastir-port.tar.gz

It's a massive 1.6kb. :)

I'll try and update it for significant snapshots and, of course, for 
the stable 1.1.4 release.

Can any other FreeBSD people here please test this (on a clean system 
would be nice) and tell me of any problems?

Jack do you want to be maintainer and finally submit it to the ports 
collection since you have commit access to the Xastir cvs repo.
