i'll take care of this. a first, very quick glance: why do you have patch-configure_in and patch-configure? can you just make the port run autoconf? is it possible to skip the version number in scilab-4.0 in PLIST? if not, can you replace it by a variable (through SUBST_VARS)? steven Disclaimer: http://www.kuleuven.be/cwis/email_disclaimer.htm
