In debian I run [...] No. You can copy the Portfile to a new port (xemacs-devel is probably the best name, see below), remove any patches (since they probably won't apply to XEmacs 21.5), change the names of the download files, and remove the checksums. Change the port revision number to 0. Change the download location to xemacs-21.5. Do port uninstall xemacs, you'll get "multiple ports claim files" errors otherwise for a few files like the xemacs binary and etags. Working around this is possible but more work than I want to explain at the moment. Do port install xemacs-devel. If this works, you're good. It may fail, either immediately (because there are no checksums) or at fetch stage (ditto). If so, use "for i in rmd160 sha1 md5; do openssl $i xemacs-$VERSION.tar.gz; done" to get the checksums, and add them to the portfile. The xemacs tarball is in the Macports download area (for me that would be /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/xemacs-devel). I'll provide checksums in xemacs-$VERSION.checksums starting from the next release. For extra points, it's possible to use a VCS to get bleeding-edge sources, but I've not written such a Portfile, so I can't help with that offhand. I believe it's possible to have local Portfiles so you don't need to mess around in the MacPorts tree, but again, I've not done that so I can't really help. _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
