    hi
    SInce I am behind a modem, I downloaded my fav ports
    (source files) and copied them to
    /usr/ports/distfiles.

    Some of the makefiles in the ports target a higer
    version of the application than I have, and some the
    lower version.
    I made the changes in the makefile and adjusted the
    MD5 values in the distinfo file, but make fails in the
    patch section. Is there a way around this (i know it
    is ugly) other than downloading from the net?

    Thanks
