Comment(by fclaire@…):

 Thanks for checking this port.

  * yes, it's complicated. It took me some time to make it working and -
 believe me - I don't do complicated stuff for the sake of it. Any proposal
 to make it simpler is welcomed.
  * I thought about it and decided to make a single Portfile as both the
 client and server are in the same source tarball and the server acts as a
 client to itself too. But you're right I'll make 2 separate ports, it'll
 be easier to install and simpler. I'll make 2 new submission tickets for
 them in the coming days.
  * the new Portfiles will have sourceforge only
  * will be removed in the new Portfiles
  * the latest stable version (4.2.3) is dated 02/2009. This second beta
 version (4.3.0) is a bit more recent (04/2009) and seems quite stable. I
 don't know why there hasn't been a stable 4.3.0 released yet. I don't want
 to build a package on too old stuff so I choosed this one.
  * ok, I'll remove the "file mkdir"
  * ok, will try 'ln -s'
  * I tried to get some doc about how to display the content of a file to
 the user but found nothing. I'll have a look at notes -> any link/hint is
 welcomed
  * ok, ${prefix}.
