Hello ports@,
I'd like to port the cspice toolkit (http://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/naif/) in
order to link it with xplanet and celestia. But I have some questions:
1- There is one source tree for each architecture (i.e. one for
Linux-32bits, one for SUN-64bits, etc.) so the port should be
arch specific. Is there an example of this in the ports tree?
2- The maintainer of the toolkit says that it is not allowed to
redistribute a standalone toolkit but it is ok to redistribute
something that is linked with it (like celestia for example). So
I think it means that PERMIT_* should all be set to NO. And
there will be no package of cspice?
3- Knowing 2, don't you think it might be better to patch
xplanet and celestia ports to build cspice and link to it?
