Hi,

I'm currently playing with pkgsrc and found some things that have to be modified. The changes are related to the 
configure-script of some X11-libraries.

So if I want to contribute these modifications so that others can compile them without troubles:

- what is the best way to integrate patches into the pkgsrc environment that have to be applied to downloaded data

and

- where shall I send the .diff-files to?

You can post diffs to the general forum.

Re: Contribute patches

So please find them attached.

During compilation of libX11, libXext and libXt I found that the configure-script does not work under 6.4.1.

The attached patches are the diff between the original configure file and my modified pkgsrc-file.

Hope that is somehow helpful.
