BUG: xli 1.17.0

[yves@…]

destroot failed while trying to install in usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults

destroot/usr/X11R6 did not exist

however, I don't think it is possible to use this directory because xorg's lib/X11/app-defaults is a symlink and activate will choke on it. I installed it in /etc/X11/app-defaults and did rm -rf destroot/ usr (manually) and everything went smoothly. don't know how to write that in a Portfile though.

it also seems this port depends on X11

I don't know this app or how X11 should behave, but this patch makes it build and puts everything within ${prefix}. Can someone please test the attached Portfile patch and determine if this makes this port work?

I committed a fix for this. It now installs app-defaults within ${prefix}/lib/X11 with no errrors and I opened a GIF file with it as an operational test. Test conducted on 10.4.5. This bug can be closed.
