Thanks for the contribution!
`port lint` has the following suggestions about your Portfile:
{{{
$ port lint
---> Verifying Portfile for mapserver
Warning: Line 2 should be a newline (after RCS tag)
Warning: Line 3 should be a newline (after PortSystem)
Warning: Line 21 has trailing whitespace before newline
Warning: Line 33 has trailing whitespace before newline
Warning: Line 35 has trailing whitespace before newline
Warning: Line 36 has trailing whitespace before newline
Warning: Line 37 has trailing whitespace before newline
Warning: Line 38 has trailing whitespace before newline
Warning: Line 40 has trailing whitespace before newline
Warning: Line 41 has trailing whitespace before newline
Warning: Line 42 has trailing whitespace before newline
Warning: Line 43 has trailing whitespace before newline
Error: Unknown category: gis
Warning: Variant gdalogr does not have a description
Warning: Variant proj does not have a description
Warning: Variant wms does not have a description
}}}
The whitespace notices aren't so important and will probably be removed
from `port lint` anyway, but the others are relevant. Variants should have
descriptions explaining their use, and we don't have a category "gis".
Perhaps the port would fit into one of the existing categories.
Further comments from me:
* You don't wish to be the maintainer of this port?
* It looks like the variant "wms" doesn't do anything so it should be
removed.
* In the destroot phase you should use `xinstall` instead of `system
"install"`.
* With regard to your comment on setting the cgi_path, this project is
called MacPorts. It hasn't been called DarwinPorts in 16 months. :-)
* `extract.suffix .tar.gz` is unnecessary; that's the default.
