[Xapian-devel] submitting a xapian entry to the FreeBSD ports collection

[Jean-Francois Dockes]

Hello,

Would anyone object to my submitting an entry for xapian-core to the
FreeBSD ports collection ? This would make it even easier for any FreeBSD
user to install a xapian-based application.

By the way, it does not seem quite right that xapian-core 0.9 will install
commands with such generic names as 'copydatabase' or 'simplesearch' to
/usr/local/bin by default. Either a renaming or a configure option to
control the installation for the examples directory would be really nice.

Would you accept a patch to allow configure to disable the building and
installation of the examples directory (ie: --disable-examples) ?

Regards,

J.F. Dockes
